Remington must have changed the 870. Mine(early 80's vintage Wingmaster with a Choate extension for dealing with rioting bowling pins and plates.) holds 5 in the tube. Not that it matters.
Five rounds in the gun is more than enough for most situations. The average cop isn't getting in many fire fights despite what you see on TV.
"...wondering why any department would choose to..." Money. Same as everything else.
