;Model 7600P Patrol Rifle<ref name="remingtonle.com">http://www.remingtonle.com/rifles/7600.htm {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050204044320/http://www.remingtonle.com/rifles/7600.htm |date=4 February 2005 }} | Remington Law Enforcement website</ref>
:Introduced in 2002, the Model 7600P Patrol Rifle in .308 Winchester featuring an advanced sight system. Answering the call for a low profile, user-friendly patrol rifle, Remington now offers this durable, pump-action rifle for standard duty use.<ref name="remingtonle.com"/> It features a black synthetic stock with sling studs and [[Wilson Combat]] [[Iron_sights#Ghost_rings|ghost-ring]] rear sights.<ref name="MGV"/>

;Model 7615 Police Patrol Rifle<ref name="ReferenceA">http://www.remingtonle.com/rifles/7615.htm {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050403211334/http://www.remingtonle.com/rifles/7615.htm |date=3 April 2005 }} | Remington Law Enforcement website</ref>
:The Model 7615P comes in [[.223 Remington]] caliber, uses standard M16/[[AR-15]] style [[STANAG magazine]]s and has a 16½" barrel. Just like the Model 7600P, the Model 7615P is designed to be a low-profile, user-friendly firearm for police officers to use alongside the [[Remington Model 870]] shotgun.<ref name="ReferenceA"/>

== Features ==
;Buttstocks
:The 7600 and 7615 models use a similar sized receiver as the [[20-gauge shotgun|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>{{Cite web |url=https://www.remington.com/rifles/pump-action/model-7600 |title=Model 7600 {{!}} Remington |access-date=9 March 2019 |archive-date=19 May 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200519132626/https://www.remington.com/rifles/pump-action/model-7600/ |url-status=dead }}</ref> attached to the receiver using a {{convert|1/4|in|mm|sigfig=3}} [[Unified Thread Standard|UNF]] [[Bolt (fastener)|bolt]] screw for enhanced accuracy (contrary to the [[Remington Model 760|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.
