I have been looking at shotguns and with any firearm purchase I like to know what the list price is so I know if the dealer is getting me a good deal or not.
However I can't find any list price information for the Remington shotguns I have been looking at. There's nothing on the Remington website, and internet searches haven't been very productive.
Today I saw an 18" Remington 870 Police Magnum with ghost ring sights, synthetic stock, and no mag tube extension with a price of $899 which seemed high. The sales guy said the list price was $925 or something like that. I didn't believe him - I've seen the same shotgun with bead sights for under $600.
At another store I saw an 18" Remington 870 Tactical with bead sights, full length mag extension, and a Knoxx Spec-Ops stock for $649. That also seemed high as the Tactical is based on the Express. However, it did have a drilled and tapped receiver which was nice, as the Police models I have seen do not have this.
