Remington 870 shotgun has been introduced by Remington inside 1950, and since then become one of

the most popular USA-made push actions all-purpose shotguns.
Remington 870 also is very popular

police/security shotgun, available with lengthy periodicals (up to 8 units),set or perhaps

collapsible butt stocks or even with handgun holds.

Remington 870 Safety is the 4th major design in a series of Remington pump shotguns. Remington

Model 10 was designed by John Pedersen. Working with John Browning, Pedersen also helped design

the Model 17 which was adopted by Ithaca as the Ithaca 37 and also served as the basis for the

Remington 31. The Model 31 was well liked, but struggled for sales in the shadow of the

Winchester Model 12. Remington sought to correct that in 1950 by introducing a modern,

streamlined, rugged, reliable, and relatively inexpensive shotgun – the 870 Wingmaster.
