Remington Model 1100 LT-20 Deer Gun 20 Ga Semi-Auto Shotgun, Factory Engraved, 20" IC Barrel
The LT-20 Deer Gun variant of Remington’s popular Model 1100 blends a lightweight receiver with a fast-cycling gas action and factory rifle sights, giving 20-gauge hunters a trim, soft-shooting package. This example retains its original scroll engraving, polished blued finish, and fixed Improved Cylinder 20" barrel—features that pre-date the later RemChoke system and make it especially attractive to collectors of early LT-20 production.

What’s Included
- Remington Model 1100 LT-20 Deer Gun semi-automatic shotgun
The LT-20 receiver, introduced in 1977, uses thinner steel walls to trim weight without sacrificing strength. Combined with Remington’s proven gas system, the result is noticeably reduced recoil and quick follow-up shots, ideal for younger shooters or extended days afield.
This factory Deer Gun configuration features a 20" plain barrel marked with two stars, indicating a fixed Improved Cylinder choke well suited for rifled slugs or buckshot. The barrel’s shorter length keeps the shotgun maneuverable in thick cover while still providing solid accuracy aided by rifle-style sights.
Decorative scroll engraving on both sides of the polished blued receiver is factory-applied, adding a touch of refinement uncommon on many working-grade 1100s. The silver-finished bolt contrasts nicely against the deep blue metalwork.
The gloss-finished walnut stock offers a 13.75" length of pull, making this piece comfortable for smaller-statured shooters or those preferring a more compact fit. Cut checkering with fleur-de-lis accents and a ventilated recoil pad complete the stock set.
Proof marks—including the triangle proof, oval “REP,” and letter “N”—confirm its U.S. manufacture during the late 1970s to early 1990s, a period valued by enthusiasts for quality fit and finish.
