What's Included
- Factory Remington Model 870 LW-20 20-gauge vent-rib barrel with fixed Improved Cylinder choke and single front bead
Designed for the Remington 870 LW-20 small-frame platform, this barrel is correctly marked "LW" and is not compatible with earlier large-frame 20-gauge 870 receivers. This is an important distinction for proper fit and function.
The chamber is marked "FOR 2 3/4 OR SHORTER SHELLS," aligning with the specified 2 3/4 inch chamber size. This factory configuration supports traditional 20-gauge loads in a lightweight 870 build.
It uses a fixed Improved Cylinder choke with no removable-choke threads. This setup is ideal for applications that favor an IC constriction without the need for tube changes.
Construction is polished blued steel with a vent rib and a single front bead sight, delivering a clean sighting plane and classic Remington finish quality.
