WTS Remington 870 Wingmaster 18-1/2" barrel (TX)

[ml1209]

This is one of the older Wingmasters, not the newer Express models. Wingmasters are on par with the Police shotguns as they have metal parts and polished internals. The action on this pump-action is as smooth as glass. Has 18-1/2" barrel, mag extension, and deluxe walnut wood furniture. This is about as refined a shotgun as you are going to get. As you can it also has the pistol grip on it. Chambered for 12 gauge, 2-3/4" shells.
Sell FTF only in the Houston area for $400 even. Dead bug not included.

This is a Remington barrel, original to the gun. It has been cut down to 18-1/2". I wasn't the one who had it done, the previous owner did. Whoever did it, though, did a great job. I personally have not shot any shells through it since I bought it two years ago. It looks to be in excellent condition - I don't think the gun has seen a lot of shells through it at all. The bolt is shiny and it is as clean as a whistle.

Make an offer. You can also sell off the wood furniture if you don't like it.
