Remington 870 Express Model

RAviles · September 18, 2005, 09:41 AM

Hey folks, I'm new at this and need some advice.

I'v decided to get the REM 870 12ga, 18" Barrel for HD. There are lots of them listed in REM web site and gun shops on line.

I've found a #25077 and a #25549 that I like the best. The 5077 has like a double barrel and bigger capacity (6 rds) I think. The 5549 has 4. Both in BLACK SYN material.
Any suggestions or advice, which one is better, or doesn't matter?
Price range around $250-$300.

Thanks
RA

It doesn't matter except for the fact that one holds 6+1 and the other holds 4+1...other than that, they are the same gun.

There are mag extensions avaliable for the 4+1 tube. It may be more economically feasible to go that route.
