Item Description
The original Remington 870 top-folding law enforcement stock is rare and highly collectible, having been used by police and tactical units from the 1960s through the 1980s. These stamped steel folders are increasingly sought after on the secondary market. Early or “pre-ban” examples—especially those marked “FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT ONLY”—are particularly desirable.
According to the owner, this example is in “New in Box” condition.

Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Remington 870 Marine Magnum is a specialized variant of the proven Model 870 platform, designed for durability in harsh and corrosive environments. Featuring an electroless nickel finish, it offers enhanced resistance to moisture, salt, and wear, making it particularly well-suited for marine or adverse field conditions. Built on the same pump-action system that has made the 870 a longstanding standard among law enforcement and civilian users alike, the Marine Magnum maintains a reputation for reliability, simplicity, and rugged performance. This configuration is further distinguished by the inclusion of a metal top-folding stock, a feature historically associated with law enforcement and tactical use from the mid-20th century. Marked “FOR LAW ENFORCEMENT ONLY,” the stock adds both historical interest and collector appeal, as original examples have become increasingly scarce. With an 18-inch barrel, improved cylinder choke, and bead front sight, the shotgun is configured for close-range effectiveness, while the combination of synthetic components and folding stock enhances its compactness and practical utility.
