Any information anyone may provide would be welcome. The stock appears to have a glossy finish with some flaking of the finish, but very solid. It appears all original, with the bluing on receiver and barrel showing very little wear. I went back to find the shotgun still available and at price less than a good used 870 express, so yes I bought it. I left it there until I read in Jack Oconnor's book about the skeet pattern being very effective for upland game out to 30 yards. I really liked the beautiful stock and vent rib, but when I read SKEET on the left side of the barrel I was uncertain as to what type of pattern it would produce. I saw this shotgun in a shop several weeks ago and looked it over closely as I was interested in a possible 20 guage shooter for upland game. Receiver is marked with Remington Wingmaster Model 870. Markings on left side of barrel appear to read A K O?, Serial # has no letter prefix and is six numbers with an X on the end 8084-X. Stock also has very highly figured wood, more so than any 870 I have looked at in the past. The stock has diamond checkering with the forearm having one horizontal groove on each side. Pistol grip has a flying duck on cap and buttplate is black plastic marked Remington. 25.5" from muzzle to front edge of ejection port. I have a Remington 870 20 guage with vent rib barrel, with two beads one steel silver bead half way up and on large white bead on the end of rib. I am making my first post in hopes of obtaining additional information on this shotgun. I found this sight while looking for information on a Remington 870 Skeet 20 guage, 2 3/4" or shorter.
