The 20.5-inch vent-rib barrel keeps this 11-87 Special Purpose quick to mount and easy to maneuver, while the Rem-Choke system adds versatility. The barrel is factory-marked "12 GA. FOR 2 3/4 OR 3 INCH SHELLS – NOT INTENDED FOR LIGHT LOADS," aligning with the model’s pressure-compensated, gas-operated action designed to reliably cycle appropriate field loads.
Interchangeable choke capability is a highlight here, with three Remington choke tubes included: an extended Turkey Super Full (lead shot only) for tight patterns, plus Modified and Improved Cylinder options. A choke tube wrench is provided for quick changes to match conditions.
Sighting is enhanced by the installed clamp-on fiber-optic rib sight strip paired with an orange fiber-optic front bead, delivering a bright, easy-to-acquire sight picture on the vent rib. This setup complements the shotgun’s compact barrel length for fast target transitions.
The shotgun wears full-coverage leaf-and-bark camouflage across the receiver, barrel, stock, and fore-end. The synthetic stock features molded checkering, a recoil pad, and sling swivel studs, and a camouflage padded sling is already installed. Capacity is 4+1, length of pull is 13.8 inches, and the receiver bears the REP Remington proof. Made in the United States.
