The hardwood stock is a one-piece design with a straight comb and semi-pistol grip. Additional details include a black checkered hard-rubber Remington logo buttplate, a rear sling stud at the toe line (no swivel loop installed), and a front swivel integral to the magazine-tube band. Factory overall length is approximately 43 inches, and length of pull measures 13.5 inches.
