Remington 870 Express Tactical Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Time tested

I bought my 870 in 1978, that's right, 39 years ago. Thousands of rounds have been fired, not one failure.....EVER! I never bought another shotgun! No reason too. This is the best shotgun ever built. Simple design, easy to own, shoot and clean! I

Great shot gun

I have owned the gun for 3 months. I have shot around 125 rounds threw it since I have had it. At the skeet range it has performed very well. I also like it came with a trigger lock.

Excellent Shotgun

Purchased two of these Remington 870 Express 12 Gage shotguns for my sons to use. We have shot over 100 rounds through each gun in the past 2 days without a single problem. This is a solid, basic pump shot gun. Shoots great, feels great, performs great. H

Amazing Gun for under 3 bills

I purchased this gun, and a large number of shells as well as a few other items a little over a month ago from Academy... Ive put about 200 shells through it so far, no issues at all... For the money, it dont get much better...

cant go wrong

You cant go wrong with this gun, i had mine for several years and it has never let me down. I've used it in freezing rain and hot summed days it always preformed as expected. I clean it every once in a while and keep it oiled.

Tough as nails

I bought this to get into duck hunting. It has never given me any problems, even after being caked with mud or frozen. Tough as nails, no frills, it just works. If you need a real work horse, this is for you.

Great gun worth the money

I bought this 2 days ago and have put 75 rounds through it and It never got James the only disadvantage is that is heavy

reliable, low cost shotgun

fit and finish is good for this price. its a shotgun, it works! put the magpul furniture on it and its even better

Best bang for buck!

This was the first shotgun that I ever owned. It was perfect for me to get into shooting and hunting with a low upfront cost and easy maintenance! I have taken it Dove hunting with friends who were all shooting more expensive semi-auto's and this pum

My favorite Shotgun

Have shot alot of diffrent pump shotguns but its hard to beat a remington.

Great

Shoots doves great I go hunting all the time with it

Best shotgun for the money.

The Remington 870 is reliable, and effective for any hunting need. Every shot is accurate and you can bet Remington stands behind their product.

the best shotgun ever

i got the gun and when i got home i put about 3 boxs through it and never jamed ones

Great starter gun

I bought mine around a year ago and I love it. bagged my first quail with it this past season and have shot lots of skeet probably have about 1 or 2 hundred rounds in it. Great price for a starter gun, and a broke college kid like me. Easy to clean and li

Perfect for dove and quail!!!

Well balanced and easy to clean. Perfect for dove and quail hunting. Academy even has the forehand and stock in camo at a reasonable price. I purchased a Benelli Nova and the Remington 870, and I prefer the 870. Quicker to shoulder than the Benelli.

squirrel bustin gun

well really all I can say about this gun is its amazing! it gets the job done and its like a bestfriend to you. if anybody wants to buy a 12 gauge, I recommend the Remington 870 express!

I wanted to guy a shotgun for home defense. I had a Remington before so the decision to buy another Remington was a no-brainer. I wanted both front and rear sights and a shorter barrel. Capacity was also an option I considered. After looking at several op

Great purchase. Shotgun arrived quickly and in perfect. Smooth transaction selecting the FFL. Very smooth transaction.

Strongly recommended

Very similar to the one I qualify with for work

Excellent tactical shotgun, great price. Setup with all the necessary accessories. Essential home security tool.

Received this shotgun and it is everything I expected it to be. Was thinking about changing the stock but after shooting 50 12 gage 00 buck I decided not to. The shot groups are great with factory set sight. Love this gun. Shipping was fast with no proble

I have a long history with the 870. I carried one as a Marine Platoon Commander in Vietnam in the 60's. But I had been without one for many years. When I saw the Express Tactical 870 pop up at a reasonable cost, I jumped on it. It is a fantastic gun....Li

Time proven 870 with added top rail. Unbelievable price. Had it shipped to my local FFL dealer without any glitches. Butt stock a little long due to recoil pad.

The Remington 870 is a good gun just as described ,smooth action just a real good tactical shotgun for the money

I love this gun. Tactical with a choke tube barrel. I think the stock and fore end are okay...but upgraded to magpul. Its now a beast.

This is my 3rd 870, great features, great value. Only drawback I can find is that the factory supplied magazine tube extension holds 5 rds (as advertised) of 2-3/4, I had set up another 870 like this before I purchased this one. I swapped out the Remingto

Park'd finish, chokeable barrel, cylinder breacher choke, extended mag tube, picatinny rail mount, Speedfeed forend, and XS ghost ring sights? Kind of a no-brainer.

I love this shotgun, it has been through many training scenarios and always operated without any glitches. Comes with everything you need and with the addition of a few optional items, it can be great gun.

I bought this shotgun primarily for home defense (HD). My decision was based on reading several reviews, as well as, several articles on what qualities a good HD shotgun should have. Two days after receiving the gun, I fired 65 rounds in a first timers cl

Great transaction! No problems at all. Fast shipping great price.

This thing works....all the time. No issues whatsoever. I have shorter arms and so I've had to replace the buttstock to make it more comfortable to shoot but that is just me. Great for the price.

I first want to say buds was outstanding! I have been with them for 5 years and have gotten many guns from them! They are truly willing to work with you! As for my 870 it is my first shotgun and I love it! Supppppper happy with it ! Thank you buds again !

A truly excellent shotgun, the Remington 870 tactical express was the first pump-action shotgun I have ever fired, and the experience was incredible. To begin with aesthetics, the gun is absolutely mean and sleek, courtesy of the breach choke and the blac

Real good service. Fast delivery

It's an 870, what else can be said! Buds always delivers as described. I'd recommend they switch from Fed Ex though. Had a major delay and their customer service sucked in helping.

Can’t beat a Remington 870. Great shotgun. Got it in hand in less than a week. Great job Bud’s!

Confidence, is what you get when purchasing from Buds. This rifle stands up to quality that you would expect from this company. Item as described, delivery was quick. I can only give Bud positive marks. OH by the way Pushing Federal Hollow Point slugs out

Another positive experience at Bud's. The Remington 870 Express Tactical is an exceptional shotgun, and definitely meets my expectations. Quality, performance, and reliability is top-notch and standard for Remington. Bud's Gun Shop has become my favorite

Bought the Remington 870 Express Tactical for home defense. Perfect transaction with Bud's - as usual! Took the gun out for a box of shells (1-1/8 #8 target load,) and it performed without a hitch. Action is smooth, loading and ejecting perfectly. I like

Ordered it on the 9th and was shooting it on the 13th. Shoots the same as any other 870 I've owned. No surprises with Buds or the shotgun. Couldn't be more happy.

I just bought the gun last week and shot it at the range a week later. First round went through and second round didnt eject. Took the gun apart to see what the problem was and found out the ejector completely broke. the gun looks great but having a brand

I have taken this to the range a few times and it's functioned well. It takes some elbow grease to put back together if you take the bolt out. It's a shotgun and I only shoot 00 buck with it so there's not much to say about accuracy other than it goes whe

Awesome weapon. My only complaint was that I was expecting a more traditional ghost ring sight, and it came with Remington's newer style ghost ring. But overall I'm still very happy with it.

Great gun, full of potential. I added the FDE Magpul stock and fore-end and the contrast is great. Plus the ability to hold 7 rounds of PDX... Really impressed with this item!

Love it so far... can't say anything about bad about it.

I have had this shotgun for a year and a half now. The finish and smoothness of action leave a bit to be desired, though this is an Express model not a Wingmaster. Out of the box it would not reliably eject aluminum based shells, they would stovepipe in t

Received shotgun in 2 days after buds received payment. As far as the shotgun, what can i say, fit and finish is good, shoots as expected, its an 870 Remington, cant go wrong with that! Thanks

Great service from Buds! I have put over 150 rounds (so far) through this shotgun without a hiccup! Pros: -XS Ghost ring sight is awesome for slugs -Very smooth action -Threaded barrel -7 shells total Cons: -Having to fight the feed ramp while reloading -

Great Gun! just as advertised. Shipping was super fast, would definitely recommend Buds.

love my new shotgun and the whole process through Buds was awesome. It took longer than I wanted to get my gun, but I understand the mad rush out there to buy firearms. Thanks Buds!

I received this shotgun a few months ago and being my first shotgun I have to say it is of very good quality. The fit and finish is outstanding and being my first online order Bud's was a very pleasant and strait forward process. The shotgun is a machine

Awesome shotgun. Intimidating for anyone on the muzzle side.

what can i say its a Remington so you know its good, love the way it looks and is a great home defense weapon, just mount a flashlight and maybe change the buttstock and you are good, only thing i didnt like was that buds kind of took awhile to ship but o

Just bought my first gun from Buds on 8/4/12 and had a good experience with one minor issue. I live locally and this Rem 870 Tactical was available in Lexington, but I was referred by an associate to order it online which cost me about 4 days of pick up t

Awsome in every way for home and or pro tacticle use

Excellent gun. Have shot 70 rounds so far with no problems. Will be even better once its broke-in. Bud's is the best gun shop around!

This shotgun came with the ghost ring sights dead on. The trigger had a nice smooth feel to it. It functions flawlessly and accurately. Quality investment.

Came fast, Bud's was great as usual. The gun is fine--Remington 870 quality. Four stars because the XS front sight fell off after about 75 rounds. However, XS immediately sent me a replacement free of charge.

Buds had the order turned around and shipped within 4 hours! The shotgun got here today in perfect order and condition already threw a few rounds through it and I am very impressed! Reccomend Buds to anyone looking for a great deal and great product. Than

This shotgun is awesome. I've added a Mako Shock-Absorbing stock, tacstar 4rd saddle, Mako foregrip with Magpul AFG1. It shoots slugs and buckshot with no problem. Yes, the choke can be used when shooting slugs and buckshot. Ghost sights are great to me.

I ordered one of these from Buds a few months back but hadn't had time to get out to the range until this last week. From the day I ordered until I picked it up at my local FFL was only 4 business days! The gun is a real joy to shoot. So far I have 105 ro

It's a Remington 870, need I say more? Ghost rings are a plus. Bud's purchase was smooth as always.

excellent shopping experience, very informative, ships quick. i would buy again from budsgunshop.com

This is the best shotgun that I have ever purchased. I took it straight out of the box and off to the range I went. Used 2 3/4 12ga Remington slugs and it fired dead on target at 30yards and destroyed the center of the target, it will shoot where you poin

Good gun for the price. Ordered mine on 4/11 and it took 7 days to ship? Picked it up from my FFL on 4/20. Buds had the best price, but took their time shipping. Overall three stars I will buy from Buds again if the price is right.

What a great shotgun! Fit and finish were excellent out of the box. Went right to the range @ work and fired 50 rounds of 00 Buck and 25 rounds of slugs. I cannot ask for anything better. Great product by Remington and Outstanding service once again from

BUDS SERVICE 10 OUT OF 10 THE GUN ITSELF 10 OUT OF 10 Shot 100 shells of the cheapest brand I could find and had 0 problems with feeding/ejection. I was also considering buying Mossberg 500/590 and checked both of them out at a local gun shop. I have hear

Very nice Gun!!! Buds service is first rate and FAST!

Overall solid package, I consider it a nice value since it comes out of the box with the receiver tapped for the ghost ring sights (ready for reflex sight, or scope), magazine extension, AND the rem choke threaded barrel. This is my all-purpose shotgun. N

Just received my gun from Buds and this gun is better than expected. Gun shipped quickly and was in great condition. This home defense gun will make a great addition to my families collection.

Good God, I love Bud's Guns. This was another wonderfully smooth transaction for an incredible shotgun. This shotgun is hard to beat for it's simplicity and durability. If you are considering buying one, DO IT! Especially if it's from Bud's!

Nice looking shotgun but finsh come of very easy

It's a Remington 870 It's Great! The XS sights are dead on at 50 yards out of the box with Federal Tru Ball slugs for me. I love the fact that I can change out the tactical choke for any choke I want. I just got an improved cylinder rem choke that works w

Sweet Shotgun. Feels good in the hand and points naturally.

Sweet Shotgun. Feels good in the hand and points naturally. You have to install the XS sight rail, but its easy to do with just a screw driver. You can very easily install a red dot or scope on the rail. Great home defense gun. Good value all around.
