Remington the sportsman. OLD!

[Bcoots]

Any insight on this thing? Just got it from my grandfather who got it from his dad so my great grandfather. I’ve looked them up and can find similar but it’s stamped Remington and browning and resembles the A5. It said the 12 gauges started at serial 500k and up with an s in front. This has no S and starts at 425k so it’s not making sense. Just looking for some insight as when I was young I put a 3 inch shell and broke something internally and wanting to get it fixed but can’t find anything about it.

Based on what I’m reading on this site, you probably have a Remington Model 11 Sportsman. The date code should be on the barrel under the forearm. May have to remove barrel to see. Also may be made prior to 1942. Lots of good info here. Enjoy it sir.

I found one thing indicating maybe around 1908. I’ll get more pics some numbers are barely readable

That shotgun was not made for a 3” shell. When you say you broke something what is the gun doing?

I have one in 20 gauge. It's from 1947. Love that shotgun

I’m aware of that. It must of been mixed in with my 2 3/4 loads but was the same color and same dram length. And when you pull the trigger nothing happens. No click no nothing and no pressure on trigger

Based on the pictures provided it appears to be a
Remington Model 11 Sportsman, which were produced from 1931 until 1949.

The 425,xxx serial number suggests 1938.
