Remington Model 1100 Field Grade 12 Gauge Semi-Automatic Shotgun, 28" Vent Rib, Fixed IC Choke
This Remington Model 1100 Field Grade is a pre-1987 example of the company’s iconic gas-operated sporting shotgun.

The gas-operated action that made the Model 1100 famous softens recoil and cycles 2 3/4 inch shells smoothly, making follow-up shots quick and manageable.
A 28-inch carbon-steel barrel with a ventilated rib promotes fast target acquisition and efficient heat dissipation. The fixed Improved Cylinder choke offers a versatile pattern for upland game and clay targets alike.

The deep hot-blue finish on the receiver and barrel is complemented by mechanically roll-engraved scrollwork—an indicator of pre-1987 production that many enthusiasts seek out.
