The Express series configuration pairs a matte black finish with durable hardwood furniture. The receiver is roll-marked Remington 870, and the barrel is marked Remington Ilion, NY. This U.S.-made pump-action is built on the proven 870 platform.
The 28 in vent-rib barrel offers a long sighting plane topped with a single front bead. It is threaded for interchangeable choke tubes, and a flush-fit choke is installed. The barrel’s matte finish reduces glare for a clean sight picture.
Chambered for 2 3/4 in and 3 in shells, this 12 gauge provides versatile load compatibility. It uses a standard-length magazine tube with a knurled end cap, and the cross-bolt safety is positioned behind the trigger for familiar operation.
The hardwood stock and forend feature pressed checkering for a positive grip. A rubber recoil pad and a 14 in length of pull round out the handling characteristics, offering a straightforward, practical setup that aligns with the Express series design.
