The 28 inch barrel uses a ventilated rib and a single bead for a clear sight picture. It is chambered for 2 3/4 inch shells and uses a fixed choke. Right-hand ejection and a tubular magazine provide a straightforward, classic configuration with a 4+1 capacity.
The gas-operated action is paired with a cross-bolt safety. The polished blued steel receiver complements the blued finish, while the bolt stands out with a bright finish and decorative scroll. The barrel rollmark reads: Remington Arms Co., Inc., Ilion, N.Y. Made in U.S.A.
The hardwood stock has a gloss finish with impressed checkering for grip. A ventilated recoil pad with a white-line spacer and a pistol-grip cap with a white-diamond inlay complete the Field-grade look. Length of pull measures 13.75 inches.
Serial indicators add useful context: the L prefix places production in the 1968–1973 range, and the V suffix denotes the standard 12-gauge receiver. This aligns with the late 1960s–early 1970s period features seen throughout the gun.
