The 28 inch barrel uses a vent rib with longitudinal serrations and a single bead front sight, giving a clear sighting plane for field use. It is chambered for 2 3/4 inch and 3 inch shells, and it is configured with a Modified choke. This setup provides versatile performance for a wide range of hunting and sporting applications.
The receiver is steel with a matte black oxide finish and right-side ejection. It carries the "Remington 870" roll-mark, while the barrel shows the "Remington Arms Company Ilion, NY" address. Operation is via dual action bars for smooth cycling, and controls include a cross-bolt safety. The trigger-plate assembly is polymer.
Furniture is hardwood throughout, including the forend, with pressed checkering for grip. The stock features a Remington "R" medallion grip cap, a black Remington-branded rubber buttpad, and a 14.0 inch length of pull. The overall finish is matte black oxide on the metalwork for low glare.
Additional details include a bead sight system, a practical 2+1 capacity, and the well-known 870 Express configuration made in the USA. This example pairs classic field ergonomics with the durability and straightforward function that have defined the 870 line.
