Re: 11-48 410 butt plate replacement

Thanks for the info. I will likely use some JB black epoxy and carefully craft a dam to shape the bottom of the plate. I've searched high and low and don't find ones that will fit as the sub-gauge shotguns have a smaller plate.

When the rain stops next week I hope to get out and do some shooting ...

Remington 788 barrels

Did Remington manufacture their own barrels, or were barrels purchased from a provider or various providers under contract.

11-48 410 butt plate replacement

Looking for a replacement butt plate. It's 4-7/8 long and 1-1/2 wide. See attached photo. I may be stuck just fixing it with some epoxy

Re: Retrofit 11-48 Cutt's Muzzle Device to accept screw in chokes.

Thanks for looking. But those on eBay are not stock tubes, they are purpose built for whomever made them, and of little value unless patterned. My gunsmith had a well used alloy tube which he gave me. It's tired looking, but completes the Cutt's device. I shot the 410 yesterday from Sta 1 and broke ...

Re: Retrofit 11-48 Cutt's Muzzle Device to accept screw in chokes.

Thank you. I have seen what's on eBay and may consider an offer. However they are modified by who knows who and shoot some undocumented pattern...So my quest continues for the time being.

I wrote a couple gunsmiths that do shotgun barrel jobs and have received one answer which I'm only going to do ...

Retrofit 11-48 Cutt's Muzzle Device to accept screw in chokes.

With a growing unlikely outcome of finding an IMP-CYL or SKEET choke tube for the Lyman Cutt's choke system... I've considered sending the barrel off to one of the choke manufacturers to adapt screw in chokes to the body of the Lyman Cutt's muzzle device. This would make the Lyman Cutt's choke body ...

Re: Remington model 11-48 410 skeet w compensator

What a shame... although it's possible that it may pattern well and break targets just fine. I originally thought it was a factory install. But learned it is aftermarket. I prefer a fixed skeet choke personally... not going to get loose.

I have a couple 1100 Sporting 410's but mostly for collection ...

Re: Remington model 11-48 410 skeet w compensator

The device is marked Lyman. I understand that this is a Lyman Cutts Compensator. Some photos I've seen show a screw in tube that adds constriction. I'm primarily interested in Skeet shooting so a skeet choke is all that I desire. Can I assume that the original skeet choke is still there? Or has the ...

Remington model 11-48 410 skeet w compensator

I just acquired this shotgun, and am searching for info on the compensator that is on it. Wondering if it left the factory like this, or if it was modified afterwards. Looks like it might be to control muzzle jump...

Supercell 30-1527 pad (what does it fit?)

Advertised as "Law Enforcement" I bought a couple Supercell pads last week that are NOT correct dimensions for 11-87, 1100, 870 as mentioned.
I have attached a photo of the contour as compared to a Supercell pad that DOES fit the aforementioned guns. Anyone with a correct answer gets my admiration ...

Excellent Idea about the photographs, once I'm back in the same state as the firearm I'll do just that.

Thank You again

Re: Model 11 Sportsman questions

Typically the Mil Gun had a Grenade, aka Bomb marking, not a wildlife roll mark. I'd proceed with the renovation... nice wood !
