Like all Model 870 shotguns, this workhorse features a receiver milled from a solid billet of steel for maximum strength and reliability. The silky-smooth twin action bars prevent binding and twisting so you'll always have the chance to get off a second shot. Appropriately dressed for the hunt and not for the wall, each shotgun sports non-reflective matte blued metalwork and a no-frills, satin-finish hardwood stock and forend. This 870 Express model is a 12 gauge with a 26" barrel, single bead sight, and Modified Rem Choke.
