I know the barrel length are exact as some of the material in the reciever counts towards the overall length depending on manufacturer.

Phil_700 New Member Joined: Mar 2016 Posts: 23 South Carolina	I just went and pulled one out of the safe that I bought new and mine measures 24 7/8" from edge of receiver. Maybe I don't know as much as I thought I did. LOL Remington advertised them as a 26" barrel. Last edited by Phil_700; 01/31/17.

OP eamyrick Campfire Regular E Joined: Dec 2015 Posts: 1,652 Central Texas	Appreciate the info. You may be right. Previous owner stated gun was factory ported and 23 inch. I'm no gun expert but been around long enough to know that Remington has put out its share off oddballs.

Well,it was in the front of the safe so I measured-21"w/o extended tube.As usual,a couple inches shorter than I've been telling people.
