Remington 870 Express 81161 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

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. Because young shooters are more likely to become stewards of the shooting sports if they are initiated with a gun that fits properly, the 870 Express Compact Jr. features a shorter LOP and barrel length than standard 870s for proper balance. It has a durable, synthetic forend and buttstock with sling swivel studs, adjustable LOP (to 1"), and a SuperCell recoil pad for a comfortable shooting experience. The Compact Jr. 20 gauge model has an 18.75" vent rib barrel, single bead sight, and Full Rem Choke. This item has a black stock and matte non-glare metal finish.

Bought for home defense and added a magazine extension. You can adjust the stock length on this gun to make it shorter for better handling in tight spaces. 20 gauge is plenty of power for home defense with lower recoil.

Always a winner! Bought this one originally for a "house gun" for the wife to use... but she loves it for trap, skeet and action shooting!

I bought this shotgun for my wife as the 12 gauge is just a little too much for her. The Remington 870 is an excellent shotgun, both in 12 and 20 gauge. They are almost carbon copies of each other. As usual, Bud's was efficient and professional. They alwa

Nice little shotgun. Good for the price that Buds sells it for. Remington isn't what it once was, but this is an Express model and I'm used to the Wingmaster which are two totally different guns. Overall I'm happy with it. My 8 year old son, which is who

My son has been using a single shot .410 for a couple of years. After spending countless hours looking at different youth shotguns, I decided to go with the 870 compact Jr. It was the only gun that I could find that a 12" length of pull. (With a reasonabl

Cant go wrong with Remington. Buds had shotgun to my dealer in 2 days as usual. Once I got the shotgun home took it out and let my daughter fire a few shells through it to test it out. Fit and finish was great, shotgun functioned perfectly and fit her jus

Tight, well made, and great value for the money. Highly reccommend. Just a few dollars more that a 500, but well worth it. Great service from Bud,s as usual. At 5'8", the compact fits me just fine, almost like a 3/4 full size 870.
