I have a fair condition model 11 Sportsman 12 gauge with a skeet barrel. It's very heavy. I had my gunsmith strip the old finish off the forearm and butt stock. I am going to put an oil finish on it.
Decided not to add a recoil pad at this time. Maybe later. Stock has first coat of boiled linseed oil and looks great.

Trying to find info on manufacturing date.. Ser 404928
The Model 11/The Sportsman receiver with serial number 404928 was put in work during May 1938. It is hard to tell from your photos, but I think I see a date code PH on the left side of the barrel just ahead of the receiver -- P = June H = 1939. Above the date code I see a repair code CTT3 - C = April TT = 1948.

Thank you for researching the action and barrel dates. I really enjoyed preservation work on this shotgun. Thought about rebluing it, but the overall condition isn't horrible enough to resort to that. Unlikely that it's collectable even though I retained the 30" full choke plain barrel. I'm trying to get my son in law to build me a wall in the finished space over the garage and put all of my Remington's on display.
I am searching for a 20ga skeet model 58. They are like hen's teeth.
