Re: 1975 vintage upgrade
Here are the results of the stock work. Problems were that the barrel was larger diameter, so milling out the barrel channel was required. The stock fits perfectly otherwise. The magazine tube cap is one of the new styles that lock on either the plastic mag tube spring retainer, or the embedded ball...

1975 vintage upgrade
I bought a fairly nice '75 vintage 1100 and to make it fit and feel the same as the rest of my 1100 Sporting guns I obtained new forend and butt stock for it. The remchoke barrel on the old 1100 is much thicker, so had to mill the front of the forend to fit. I've noticed that the threaded cap doesn'...

Re: Just got an 1100 G3
Well I shot the new (to me) 1100G3 today and it shot the Federal Target loads without any problems. I was pleased. I didn't shoot two full rounds as I let my buddies have a couple shots each so they could comment on the gun's performance. I hit well with it and using an IC choke the clays were duste...

Re: Just got an 1100 G3
is what the manual shows. The multiple pieces I'm used to seeing were not present until after firing the gun.
The normal two metal rings and one O ring showed up when I cleaned the gun after it's first use.

Just got an 1100 G3
I just got an 1100 G3. Was disappointed that the receiver had some corrosion on it. Thought the Titanium coating would have prevented such "spotting" or "freckling". I typically don't buy guns that show such signs of neglect. But this was a Gunbroker deal, and I didn't really get...

Source for extended chokes as used in "Sporting" model 1100
Recently purchased a used 20ga 1100 sporting. It only had the skeet choke, and I wish to get the IC, Lt-Mod and Mod chokes for it.
If you know of a source other than Remington Parts Dept, please let me know. I hate paying retail to them.

Re: Remington Model 788 trigger
I published some photos of a trigger modification you can do. The original article http://24.172.105.90/z/541%20trigger/ including some photos. I did purchase a Timney trigger for my 223, but did this mod for a similar trigger mechanism. You can't loose if you're careful. Call me for details if you ...

Remington 581 trigger modifications
I looked at the diagram of the 541 trigger and decided to disassemble my trigger and drill it for two 8-32 screws. One from the rear to adjust sear engagement, and one from the front to adjust overtravel. This leaves the trigger pull to the only spring in the mix. The previous article recommends pur...
