Remington Model 1100: A Classic American Shotgun
The Remington Model 1100 was introduced in 1963 as a successor to earlier Remington semi-automatic shotgun designs. Its gas-operated action helped establish the Model 1100 as a popular choice among hunters and competitive shooters.
Unlike recoil-operated shotguns, the Model 1100 uses propellant gases to cycle its action. This operating system helps moderate felt recoil and contributes to the shotgun's reputation for comfortable shooting.
Over the decades, the Remington 1100 has been produced in numerous configurations, including field, target, and magnum models.
Traditional Walnut Stock and Engraved Receiver
This Remington 1100 features a walnut stock and fore-end with traditional checkering, providing the classic appearance associated with American sporting shotguns.
The receiver displays decorative scroll engraving, adding visual character to the shotgun's traditional design. The wood furniture features attractive grain patterns, while the ventilated rib barrel complements its sporting configuration.
The receiver is also marked MAGNUM, identifying it as a magnum-designated version of the Remington 1100. The exact chamber length and ammunition compatibility should be verified from the barrel markings before use.
Gas-Operated Semi-Automatic Performance
The Remington 1100's gas-operated action is one of its defining features.
By using a portion of the expanding gases generated during firing to operate the action, the shotgun provides semi-automatic cycling while helping distribute recoil forces over a longer period.
This design contributed to the Model 1100's popularity for waterfowl hunting, upland bird hunting, and recreational clay shooting.
Its traditional handling characteristics and established mechanical design continue to appeal to sporting shotgun enthusiasts.
