Remington 1100
The model 1100 holds the record for the most shells
fired out of an semi auto shotgun without malfunction or cleaning, set in
1978 with a record of over 24,000 rounds fired.
With a title like that, what is not to love about
Remington's 1100? This may explain why it has remained popular among
bird hunters, Skeet shooters, and Trap Shooters since its introduction in
1963 through today.

Model 1100 History
The evolution of this shotgun started with the design
of the
Remington model 11-48, then the Model 58s and the 878s.
The original version of the Remington 1100 shotgun came out
only in the 12 gauge in 1963, followed by the 16 gauge and 20 gauge in
1964, and finally the .410 gauge Remington 1100 in 1969. In 1970 a
matched set came out in .410 gauge and 28 gauge.
