I have a Police Magnum 870 with the Ohio State Patrol logo engraving on the receiver and the badge on the bottom of the grip. Rifle sights, 16", extended tube, it's awesome! OSP brought them into Columbus Vance's literally piled into shopping carts. $250 each back then! Mine's perfect!

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@@billn911 that's awesome!! Thanks for watching

[@jasonweaver4950]

I was with the patrol when they went to Vance’s! We got to cherry pick, unfortunately I did not get one. The collector value is more than you paid.

[@LastManStanding.45]

Sweet! I picked up an 870 police magnum back in the 90s. It has a law-enforcement only folding stock and is also Sweet 😉

[@darrelldunlap7249]

Got one about 1980 or so! It also came with the top folding metal stock. I still have them both!!!

[@noexcuses6727]

That stock is worth more than the gun. Currently going for around $700.00.

[@darrelldunlap7249]

Wow didn't know that!!!! I am amazed!

[@ThisShitDontFlush]

@@noexcuses6727….. things are only worth what someone is willing to pay for it!

[@moosa86]

I picked up an identical looking one from them recently. Mine was made in March 1977… all blued and chromed out. They made firearms very aesthetically pleasing in that decade.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@@moosa86 and absolutely beautiful quality! Thanks for watching

[@classicgunstoday1972]

My 870 Police Magnum is blued too. Has a chrome bright bolt too. Wood stock. Had it for 17 years. Use it for a knock down drag out vehicle and home defense gun. Got a magazine extension for it too. Demo’ed it recently on my chnl. Great review here!

[@noexcuses6727]

The main difference in the Wingmaster and other 870's and the Police Magnum is that the Police Magnum has a steel trigger assembly and all the (current) others are plastic.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

This is true! I forgot to mention that! Thanks for watching!

You can't beat an 870 👍👍 have 3 in my Family .......

Funny, we had parkerized Wingmasters in the Air Force in the 80’s.

Great looking shotgun, i prefer mossbergs but i won't hold that one against ya.

[@irregularrex4004]

I think I missed the boat. Been thinking about picking up a 870 Police magnum with the rifle sights and extended tube and Atlantic Firearms just sold out and I'm assuming AIMS been sold out for a bit. AF wanted $600 for theirs. I'm hearing that's too much from people.

[@johnnail532]

I picked up a 870dm that took detachable magazines a couple of years ago- it was awful and had horrible fit and finish all around- the detachable magazine was so bad you could bend the metal around the feeding area with a finger. I don’t think they make those anymore. I was not impressed with Remington after that experience and soon traded it on a mossburg 500 which is much better constructed. I have heard that older Remington shotguns are quality but I have only had the sample size of one to judge the company

[@Squizzle56]

@@TheMilsurpMan how much was shipping? Do they collect sales tax?

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@Squizzle56 shipping and sales tax is added on yes. It's not bad, though.

[@tinmanspartan7551]

Didn't really see any "great" prices. Every thing on their website looked pretty comparable to every other site for used firearms. But hey value is in the eye of the shopper.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@@tinmanspartan7551 that's true! Thanks for watching!

[@moosa86]

AimSurplus actually has the best price for these types of firearms compared to other big name websites (ie Atlantic firearms, etc) which are selling them for a couple 100 bucks more…

[@kennyberger5377]

400$ is not a bad deal for something you plan on sealing in a PVC pipe and caching it in the mountains.

[@HanzBlitz-i8t]

I worked for an agency that provided these in the cars. We could bring our own rifles. The rifle needed to be put in the rack beginning of shift, and then taken out end of shift. PITA. Also, the regs were: must be black, must be 16", must have either/or a 1x electronic sight, or, irons, must be a reputable factory brand in original configuration. So, I didn't bother. I asked to put a Magpul stock on it, a velcro side saddle, sling, light, and big dot bead with my own money. The answer was "no" However, I did get Federal Flight Control ammo approved. One day my task was to go get one of the old crown vics out of the garage and make it ready for parades and funeral escorts. It had another 870 in it, and the barrel was stuffed full of candy wrappers and cigarette butt's. That unit had been sitting there since 2001, occasionally moved and used for errands, and this was 2016 when I got the car ready.

[@kennardjohnson7875]

That shotgun is worth at best 200.00 you can get a top of line mossberg for 600.00. These wholesalers are making alot of money,I doubt they are getting much more than 100 bucks a piece.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@kennardjohnson7875 misinformation on both of your points. Mossbergs top of the line shotguns are well into 1k....and top for the line is a stretch. Yout statement about only being 200 is interesting. Do you care to elaborate. Are you informed on what a police magnum Is. You cannot even get a new made cheap Turkish shotgun for 200 these days.

[@kennardjohnson7875]

@@TheMilsurpMan I said 600 dollars for a moss,I would not consider anything made it's not a bird. Next I only buy pump shotguns,the newest one holds 9 rounds.

[@PaulKersey5.56]

@@TheMilsurpMan i bought a police trade in Beretta 1201 from them. So when I went to pick it up from my local FFL. The Beretta was in terrible condition. Just shit, like it was in a couple tours of Iraq ! I called & emailed them. They offered a refund or $75 off my next purchase. I wanted the gun because they are so hard to find. I had to spend about $250 to get it cerakoted. I think AiMS could have took more off & I will Never buy anything from them again!

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@PaulKersey5.56 ahh dang sorry for your bad experience. I've always had good luck buying from them, but you honestly never know.

[@PaulKersey5.56]

@@TheMilsurpMan yeah , that was my first & last purchase from AIMS. It’s sad because I like police Trade ins too. We use to have a Barney’s police supply here in Nola. I use to always pick up some good stuff from them.

[@2centsam927]

Good video, i could be mistaken but i believe the police magnum was sold as 870 express as a civilian model.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

The express is the cheaper more budget alternative to the 870 line. Thanks for watching!

[@justlookingaround]

Don’t waste your money for what they are asking, plus aim is know for rating surplus in better condition than they are. 399 used when you can buy new for 100 dollars more with a warranty 😂😂😂😂. It’s smooth because every time the officer brings it back in the police station at the end of the shift he cycles the action a dozen times, every day, for the last ten years😂😂😂😂 at 250 it would be a deal at 399 I wouldn’t waste your money literally for 480 you can get a Remington 870 tactical new with a warranty.

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@justlookingaround you can not get a police magnum for 480..new 870s are of the absolute worst quality.. you can clearly see the action bars do not have any high wear on them. It's smooth because vintage remingtons were made with quality. Everything you've stated is just ignorant. Of course, you'd need a warranty of a gun of junk quality when you constantly have to send it to the factory... Even high points have a lifetime warranty 😂🤷🏻‍♂️ you obviously lack knowledge and understanding of firearms.

[@bakman52]

Between shipping and FFL fees you just paid more than a brand new one would cost you

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@bakman52 I've not seen any brand new police magnums for 450. Keep in mind there's a difference between an express, which is more than likely what you are referring to, and a police magnum. Not to mention the quality level between old remington and new remington is now comparison.

[@earldelsanto]

True dat. However have you looked closely or shot a new Remington 870. Like all new Remington stuff. It's junk.

[@earldelsanto]

lol it’s 400$ a brand new one in California is 450$ why would anyone do this!?!?!?

[@TheMilsurpMan]

@NOOBKIAtv I'm afraid you're incorrect, sir. To my knowledge police magnums are in very, very limited production if not completely discontinued. They were at a price at 800. Older Remington products are of the highest quality, unlike the newer ones. You may can pick up an express for that now, but it's definitely not a police magnum. There's a big quality difference. Be sure to do your own research.
