The Remington 870 Wingmaster 20 gauge shotgun is a lightweight, reliable workhorse built for upland hunters, clay shooters, and anyone who values a trim, fast-handling gun over magnum power. This 28" barrel model pairs the legendary 870 action with manageable recoil and a balance point that makes hours in the field feel effortless. The satin walnut furniture and high-polish blued receiver give it a classic, purposeful look—no tactical polymer, just proven shotgun design that's been proven across generations.
Twenty-gauge shotguns have earned serious respect among experienced shooters: less punishing than a 12 gauge, still plenty of shot energy for game birds and competition targets, and ammunition that won't leave you sore after a full day. The 870 Wingmaster's 4-round magazine capacity and vent rib barrel with removable Rem Choke system let you tailor your shot pattern to the birds you're hunting. The twin bead sights keep your eye focused on the target and follow-up shots honest and quick.
Dimensions and fit matter for comfort and control. This gun comes with a 14" length of pull and drop measurements (1 1/2" at the comb, 2 1/2" at the heel) that reflect a standard adult gunstock—worth checking against your own frame if you're between sizes or shoot in heavy winter gear. At 6 1/4 pounds, the lightweight profile is real; you'll notice the difference in the truck and on long walks.
If you've inherited an 870, shot one at your grandfather's side, or simply respect the design of a gun that's been refined since 1950, the Wingmaster 20 is the kind of shotgun that rewards straight shooting and reliable mechanics over complexity.

Yes. The 20 gauge offers less recoil than a 12 while delivering enough shot payload and energy for pheasant, quail, grouse, and clay sports. It's a favorite among shooters who value control and comfort without sacrificing effectiveness.
Rem Choke is Remington's removable choke system that lets you swap tubes to adjust your shot pattern—tighter chokes for distant targets, more open patterns for close work. It's practical versatility without replacing the entire barrel.
The product facts provided do not specify which choke tubes are included. Contact the store directly to confirm what's in the box.
14" length of pull is a common fit for standard adult shooters. If you're very tall, very short, or plan to shoot in heavy winter clothing, you may want to measure your own or handle a similarly-stocked shotgun before purchase to ensure proper fit and control.
