I just picked up a police trade-in 870. It's beautiful in an ugly sort of way. The exterior is dinged up a little and the stock has a few scrapes but the bore and inside receiver look shiny new with little or now wear. And the action is so smooth. I love this thing!
It's an 870 Wingmaster with an 18.5 barrel with front bead. The serial # is 1245XXXV and it has the letters "ARM" stamped vertically on the left side of the receiver, just behind the barrel.
I always wanted an 870 but couldn't justify the $$ after buying an 1100 Competiton Master last year. Best part about this deal is it works great and only cost $169.
Have any thoughts on hold old it is or what the "ARM" stands for. Two of my friends got the same deal and theirs had the same stamp.
Thanks and Happy New Year!
