In my experience, Remington’s boasts hold true – this is probably my second-to-favorite synthetic build or finish, a close second to that famous Glock polymer stuff. The build is billed as being resistant to water, weather, drops, scratches – you name it, and the patented Remington ArmorLokt finish protects from it. However, the primary build of the gun is encased in a highly protective, everything-resistant nylon synthetic material known as ArmorLokt. The 887 isn’t all synthetic – it does utilize a steel receiver and hammer-forged barrel featuring the same steel implemented on the Remington 1100 and 870 models.

So, what could have gone wrong for a gun that achieved this “trifecta?” Why on earth didn’t it sell like hot cakes, and why was it discontinued? Buckle up my friends, I’ll be giving you the full story here in our Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Shotgun Review! Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Shotgun Remington Model 887 Nitro Mag Tactical Specifications It features a remarkably durable synthetic build, it fires like a dream, and its light weight will take you by surprise the first time that you hold it. Now, on a few rare occasions, I have had the pleasure of firing a gun that bucked this trend and hit all three check marks – and the Remington Model 887 is one of those guns. Or, it could be lightweight and durable, but not handle well. In my experience, generally, a firearm can be durable and handle well, but not be lightweight. I would like to apply this same concept to gun development, but with different factors in play. Or conversely, it could be good and cheap, but not fast. For example, a restaurant can be fast and cheap, but not good. There is a widely-referenced project management concept known as the iron triangle, which states that of three key factors – fast, good, and cheap – you can only really feature two. I say “did” because the gun has been sadly discontinued, but we’ll get to that later. A successor of sorts to the highly successful Remington 870, the Remington Model 887 did a lot right. One of my favorite shotguns of any kind, and particularly of the pump-variety, is undoubtedly the Remington Model 887. Swivel studs are built-in.Is there anything quite as satisfying as pumping a high-quality pump-action shotgun, ejecting a spent round, and chambering a new one? Probably, but bear with me here. The extremely rugged synthetic stock and fore-end are ergonomically contoured to offer a positive grip and comfortable handling. And the sleek receiver design, awesome balance and natural pointing characteristics spell trouble for any bird within reach of its 12-gauge 3 1/2″ Super Magnum capability. Twin steel action bars ensure smooth, positive chambering and ejection. Similar to the Model 870, it’s receiver is crafted of solid steel and the barrel is hammer forged to last a lifetime. Our exclusive ArmorLokt process seals the receiver and barrel in a vault of weather-impervious synthetic armor that’s both completely rustproof and tough as nails. Born of the gunmaking expertise that brought you the best-selling, most trusted shotgun of all time, the Model 870, the Model 887 Nitro Mag is an armor-clad warrior here to carry the torch of our great pump-gun legacy through the most extreme conditions on earth.
