There was one shooter with new Remington 870 Tactical on today’s shotgun training of our shooting club. As you know, new Remington 870 Tactical has long magazine tube which makes feeding more reliable. The only question I have to Remington’s designers is why magazine tube isn’t flush with the barrel.

You will need to use +1 magazine extension to have your barrel flush with magazine tube.

The only problem of new Remington 870 Tactical is that it accepts barrels designed specially for this model.

This model has plastic stock and forend. Remington 870 Tactical has capacity of 6 shells in magazine tube plus 1 in chamber.

Overall, shooter was really happy with the performance of this shotgun. No extraction problems, reliable feeding, everything is perfect.
