Most of the wood on remingtons lower priced guns is pretty ugly. The express model's wood looks like plywood. I replaced my wood with synthetic, looks better and feels better.
Many of the Police models I have seen locally seem to be made to wingmaster specs, with blued receiver and barrels rather than the parkerized finish found on the express models. The wood on these police models isn't bad, but not up to wingmaster standards. The wingmaster is the top of the line 870 with blued receiver and walnut (I think) stocks.
Personally I prefer the synthetic stocks for a HD/knockabout gun. Wood bruises too easily.
