What’s Included
- Remington Model 11-48 12 Gauge semi-automatic shotgun
The Model 11-48 uses a long-recoil-operated action and is configured with a 2+1 capacity. It has right-side ejection with the bolt handle on the right and a cross-bolt safety at the trigger guard. The blued steel receiver and barrel present classic Remington styling with American manufacture and markings.
The 28 inch plain steel barrel is fitted with a single front bead and a Modified (Mod) choke. The barrel is clearly roll-marked "12 GA. FOR 2 3/4 OR SHORTER SHELLS" and "MOD." to verify the chambering and choke. This setup delivers a straightforward field configuration with a clean sight picture.
Furniture consists of a walnut pistol-grip buttstock and matching walnut forend, both with cut checkering. A hard Remington-logo buttplate is installed, and the length of pull measures 14.0 inches, providing a traditional fit on the shoulder.
Factory legends include "Remington Arms Co., Inc., Ilion, N.Y., Made in U.S.A." on the barrel. The finish is blued throughout the barrel and steel receiver, consistent with the model’s period-correct appearance.
Key functional details include the 2 3/4 inch chamber paired with the Modified choke, the single front bead sight for quick alignment, and the straightforward control layout with the cross-bolt safety. As configured, the magazine accommodates two shells with one in the chamber.
