Re: Late late late Model 11?
That barrel date code looks like KTT to me. K = May TT = 1948. The highest 12-gauge Model 11 serial number I've recorded is 804638 with a barrel date code of PTT, June 1948. The Model 11 and the Sportsman were still the autoloading shotguns in the May 1, 1948, Remington Arms Co., Inc. catalog -- May...

Looks like a tame version of Annie Oakley's Model 11 --

Re: Gifted a model 11
Sad to say the wood is after market, the metal is badly buffed and reblued, not looking at all like original Remington finishes, and it is a mismatch of parts with the much later "The Sportsman" marked bolt.

Re: 1100 - which model is this?
At that time, 1979, the only difference between the 12-gauge Model 1100 Field Gun and the Model 1100SA Skeet Gun is the skeet gun had a 26-inch, vent rib, SKEET choke barrel with a mid-bead while the Field Gun only had a front bead.

Re: 1894 10 gauge shot count?
I have yet to see a hang-tag for either a 10- or 16-gauge Remington Hammerless Double. The heaviest factory offered 10-gauge shells in the days the Remington Hammerless Doubles were made was 1 1/4 ounce.

Re: Model 31 Trigger Group Question
I have seen Model 31s with the Aeromet receiver marked "Model 31L" but most are just marked "Model 31" the same as the steel receivers. The Aeromet receivers appear to be serial numbered right along with the steel receivers.

Re: Model 29-T
That gun has been buffed and reblued. Doesn't look like original Remington Arms Co., Inc. finishes at all. Can see a few rust pits that weren't completely buffed out. There are very few restorers who seem to be able to duplicate the "between the wars" Remington metal finishes. The Model 29...

Re: Model 1900 extractor
Sounds like he has a KED-Grade. When the K-quality Remington Hammerless Doubles were introduced in 1900 there were two versions, the K-Grade with Remington Steel barrels and a plain extractor and the KED-Grade with two-stripe Damascus barrels and automatic ejectors. In the 1903-04 Remington Arms Co....

Re: Model 1100 starting serial number
The bare receivers were set aside for the D and F grades to be hand engraved.
