The 18.5-inch steel barrel is a plain cylinder bore, fixed choke configuration marked CYL, with no rib and a single-bead front sight. The 3-inch chamber accepts both 2 3/4- and 3-inch shells, offering flexibility across common 12-gauge loads.
The receiver is roll marked Remington 870 with an Ilion, NY barrel address and uses right-side ejection. A polymer trigger plate and cross-bolt safety complete the straightforward, duty-grade control layout. The overall finish is matte black for a low-glare profile.
Magazine capacity is 4+1 with the standard flush tube and knurled cap. The black synthetic stock provides textured panels for grip, a Remington-marked buttpad, and a rear sling swivel stud. Length of pull is 13.75 inches, paired with a ribbed synthetic forend for secure handling.
Built with a steel barrel and steel receiver, this Model 870 Express Synthetic is made in the United States. The configuration focuses on practical function: cylinder-bore performance, bead sights, and a 3-inch chamber suited to a wide range of applications.
