Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The famed Remington Model 11 was America’s first autoloading shotgun and was offered in 12-gauge, 16-gauge, and 20-gauge models. It had good ergonomics, was hammerless, recoil-operated, used side ejection, and had a tube magazine. Its profile was fairly classic except for its slightly tall raised receiver profile. The Model 11 enjoyed a popular 42 year production run from 1905 to 1947 that accounted for 850,000 built. Remington made 65,000 Model 11s for Browning to help the Allies fight the Axis during World War II. The United States Navy trained with the Remington 11 during World War II, but other branches also received at least some examples of the shotgun. However, all the guns supplied to the US armed forces were olive drab and had a Government property marking.
The Model 11 was designed by none other than legendary John M. Browning. Interestingly, the Remington 11 was first produced under the name Remington Autoloading Shotgun, but in 1911, it was renamed to the Model 11. The gun’s early years were 12-gauge only all the way until 1930. That year saw the 20-gauge introduced and the next year, Remington added the 16-gauge. Over the course of its history, the gun had various “grades” that included Standard, Riot, Police, Special, Trap, Tournament, Expert, and Premier. There was also a three-shot Sportsman model added in 1931. The 11 was followed by the improved Remington Model 11-48, with another half million built.
Return Policy:
We gladly offer a 3 day unfired inspection policy from the time that the firearm is delivered to your FFL. Refunds are available for all qualifying orders.
