More than 40 years ago, the Model 1100 forever changed the way American shooters viewed autoloading shotguns. It was the first autoloader to combine the repeat-shot versatility of early-century models with the sleek, modern lines and handling qualities of revered double barrels. The Remington Model 1100 has been a field-proved favorite ever since. Its superb balance, handling, durability and soft recoil from the gas-operated action are the foundation of the Remington autoloading legacy.Many skeet shooters even use the 20-gauge in 12-gauge events because of its reduced recoil. It's great combination of pattern density and pellet energy grinds up targets in even the most difficult presentations. It features a tournament-grade American walnut stock with gloss finish and includes a sporting-style recoil pad. The 28-inch vent rib barrel comes with four interchangeable Rem Choke tubes in Skeet, Improved Cylinder, Light Modified, and Modified.
