Picked up a real nice 12ga. M870 28" modified plain barrel the barrel code indicates a manufacture date of November 1968. The metal is mint the wood is only about 95% all in all really nice for being 55 years old. The wood has 1 st gen impressed checkering and the older satin finish. When did Remington 1st start finishing the 870 with RKW finish? Mb
