What's Included
- Remington Model 1100 Special Purpose Magnum 12 gauge shotgun as configured (23-inch ported vent-rib barrel, extended magazine tube, barrel/magazine clamp [integral sling-mount ear with through-hole])
The 23-inch vent-rib barrel with linear porting offers a compact, maneuverable length while maintaining a clean sight picture. A single brass front bead paired with a small mid-rib bead provides straightforward indexing. The barrel is correctly marked for 3-inch magnum shells to match the receiver.
The extended magazine tube increases capacity to a stated 7+1. A barrel/magazine clamp with an integral sling-mount ear (through-hole) adds secure support for the tube and provides a front sling attachment point. The exterior shows a matte, non-glare finish across the receiver and barrel for reduced reflection.
Hardwood furniture includes a pistol-grip stock and long fore-end, both with pressed checkering for grip. The buttstock is fitted with a Remington ventilated recoil pad, and length of pull measures 13.75 inches. A sling swivel stud is installed at the buttstock toe.
This gas-operated, semi-automatic 1100 Special Purpose Magnum retains its correct rollmarks: "Remington Model 1100 MAGNUM" on the receiver right side and "SPECIAL PURPOSE MAG" on the left. It was made in the United States and is configured for 12 gauge, 3-inch loads, with a clean, mirror-finished bore.
