: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. It features a black synthetic stock with sling studs and Wilson Combat ghost-ring rear sights.

;Model 7615 Police Patrol Riflehttp://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

:The Model 7615P comes in .223 Remington caliber, uses standard M16/AR-15 style STANAG magazines 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.

Features

;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{{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 }} attached to the receiver using a {{convert|1/4|in|mm|sigfig=3}} 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.
