FeaturesEdit

Buttstocks
The 7600 and 7615 models use a similar sized receiver as the 20-gauge version of the 870 shotgun, and thus share a cross-compatibility of buttstocks. However, buttstocks made for the more common 12-gauge version of the Remington 870 will usually not fit.
Barrel
The 7600 and 7615 models feature a free floated barrel<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation

|CitationClass=web }}</ref> attached to the receiver using a Template:Convert UNF bolt screw for enhanced accuracy (contrary to the Model 760 which is not free floated).

Bolt
To aid extraction, the 7600 has a two lug bolt design as an improvement from the multi-lugged bolt on previous models such as the 760.
