Remington mod 870 barrels!

[LawrenceN]

I have a dilemma, and need some knowledgable input. I have a 20ga. Remington 870 with the 28" barrel. I can't seem to find the 26" barrel except as the combo pack, but that's the barrel I prefer for upland game birds where I hunt. I'd be willing to either trade my 28 incher as a straight swap for the 26", or given a fair price, just purchase one. BTW, it's the parkerized finish, not the higher grade blued. Any thoughts?

Well i know that mossberg makes some very affordable after market barrels for the 870 in 12 guage, but i don't know if they make any 20's. Might want to look into that, maybe someone carries those for you.

Keep your eye out for a used youth model 870 express with the 21" barrel and just swap barrels. That's what I did because 20 gauge barrels are sometimes hard to find.

Have it cut and re threaded.

Any Remington dealer can get you the 26" 20 bore Rem Choke barrel. Several dealers list 20 bore Express 870's with 26" rem choke barrels alone not as the combo.
