    Remington Model 870

    Hello, I just became a US Citizen 4 weeks ago, and i have a chance now to purchase my first Firearm In the United States. I saw this at the Remington website and i wondered if this is legal in Cali? I do not know many of the laws here in Cali as i should but i figured you all would.

    yes it is legal. It is under the 10 round limit and it is a pump. This site is great for finding intel on the CA gun laws. The Remington and Mossberg are both great shotguns for the price. A great choice for a first gun.

        Congrats on becoming a citizen too!
        Lord, make my hand fast and accurate.
        Let my aim be true and my hand faster
        than those who would seek to destroy me.
        Grant me victory over my foes and those who wish to do harm to me and mine.
        Let not my last thought be 'If I only had my gun."
        And Lord, if today is truly the day you call me home, let me die in an empty pile of brass.

          Model 870� Folding Stock w/7-Shot Extension. Why the question mark?

          Have you got a price on this model yet, I was considering the new Mossberg - I can only find one local gunshop that can get it and it 379.99.

                You probably know more about American history than the average citizen - congratulations... now take that Remy and go shoot some illegal aliens

                Thanks mapleleafup, I saw the MSRP about 30 seconds after I posted... doh!

                  Congrats on becoming a US citizen. I believe the shotgun in question is legal here. You will not go wrong buying an 870. Just take a look inside any police car, I'm willing to bet that about 97% of the shotguns across the US are going to be an 870.

                      are you originally from Canada, hence the maple leaf ref? Congrats by the way..

                              The remington 870 is a very common shotgun for a gun store. Even big 5 sell them. I do not know much about your location in CA. So you might need to find a gun store or find a FFL and have them order one for you.
