The receiver is roll-marked 'Remington REG. U.S. PAT. OFF. MODEL 31,' confirming its Model 31 lineage.
It ejects to the right and feeds from a tubular magazine, with capacity 2+1 as currently configured. A takedown-style knurled magazine cap supports easy separation for maintenance and transport.
The barrel is a plain, no-rib 28 inch steel tube marked Full at the shoulder and is equipped with an adjustable muzzle choke device. A front bead is mounted on the choke unit. The chamber is cut for 2 3/4 inch shells, pairing well with the adjustable choke for tailored patterning, including a full adjustable choke setting.
Furniture consists of a wood stock with a pistol-grip profile and a corncob grooved wooden fore-end. An unbranded ventilated recoil pad is installed, and the length of pull measures 13.25 inches. The overall fit complements the Model 31's classic pump-action layout.
The metal exhibits a blued finish on both barrel and receiver. The bore is bright and clean, and the action retains the Model 31's hallmark takedown and magazine features. With its U.S. manufacture, collectible status, and tasteful custom touches, this shotgun presents a straightforward, well-configured example of Remington's pre-war era pump design.
