i think that it can only hold 3 shells

The standard Rem. 870 express magnum tube magazine holds either 5 rounds of 2-3/4" shells ( +1 possible in the breech) or 4 rounds of 3" shells (+1 possible in the breech). There are extended tubes on the police or marine models that hold 7 rounds + 1 in the chamber. 2 round extensions are available from Midway & others.
Made by Remington in 1985 &1986; 28" or 30" vented rib barrel with various chokes; basicly same gun as the 870 Express model; most if not all 870 parts are interchangable. Should probably hold value comparable to the Remington 870 Express model which retails close to $400.00 after taxes.

Most shotguns of this time period will have a full choke.As to the shells,I would hold the power down to game loads(low brass)16 gauge shells due to the inheriant weakness of the steel over time and as constructed back during that time span.
No way to answer without knowing what gauge and what loads you are talking about
i just bought a 870 express synthetic, The default config is 4 in the magazine, 1 in the chamber. They say 5 but that's what they mean.
