Like all Model 870 shotguns, this workhorse features a receiver milled from a solid billet of steel for maximum strength and reliability. The silky-smooth twin action bars prevent binding and twisting so you'll always have the chance to get off a second shot. Appropriately dressed for the hunt and not for the wall, each shotgun sports non-reflective, black matte metalwork and a no-frills, satin-finish hardwood stock and forend. The 870 Express Youth model 20 gauge has a 21" vent-rib barrel with a Modified Rem Choke and a a 13" LOP (1" shorter than standard).
