*SOLD* 1972 Remington 1100 12 Ga Blue 30" *ICONIC AUTO-LOADING SHOTGUN*
Bryant Ridge's Analysis
The Remington 1100 is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun introduced by Remington Arms in 1963. The Model 1100 bleeds off-gases to operate the action through ports in the barrel near the fore-end. The gasses then drive a steel action sleeve that fits around the magazine tube and connects to the bolt carrier to the rear, ejecting the spent shell. A fresh shell is released from the magazine, which trips the carrier release, and the action spring in the stock pushes the bolt forward, picking up the fresh shell and loading it into the chamber. The Model 1100 can fire any 2+3/4-inch (7.0 cm) shell without adjustment in the standard models, and both 2+3/4 and 3-inch (7.6 cm) Magnum shells can be used interchangeably on the Magnum versions. As of 1983, it was the best-selling autoloading shotgun in U.S. history in dollar terms.
