No pics yet but I just picked up a SxS double trigger in 12 Ga. flavor. The only markings are the words "Amercian Gun Co. New York" on the plate (which I do not the proper name for) to which the hammer is attached. The are no marks for the chokes. The wood is very nice and it locks up tight...

Just got an email flyer from CDNN that had the following 870's in it. Remington 870 Express·12/26/3·Pump Action·Vent Rib·1-Choke GD-VG....#REMA870....$149.99 Remington 870 Express·12/28/3·Pump Action·Scope Mount GD-VG....#REM219....$169.99 Remington 870 Express Mag·12/28/3·Pump...

I've been tinkering with this 1100 magnum for a few years now. I really wanted a CM but they were too much. I've shot this gun a bunch when it was configured as a 2 3/4" Special Field with an English stock but otherwise stock parts but that "need" for a Competition Model kept nagging me. I...

OK team, What's the difference between an 870 barrel stamped "Light Contour" versus one stamped "Target Contour". I suspect that the "Target Contour" may be the older, 2 3/4" version of the "Light Contour" but I am only guessing. Anyone have a clue? Thanks, Mike

Well my latest acquisitions arrived last night; a 1951 870 with a matching barrel marked WW (which I think is actually '50) and a stripped receiver. The receiver turns out to be a

Well I just got back from my third trip to Lehigh this week and shot a 77. This is after an 86 on Monday morning and an 87 on Thursday evening. What changed? Well, I tried to swap to a skeet barrel for those six shots that come from across the lake. I did get two of them but I do not think...

I was up a Lehigh again on Monday shooting Sporting Clays with my buddy and his son who is on leave (doing recruiting) from the Marines at the moment. I was having a good day until I had two different guys offer me instruction. Their delivery was night and day. The first one just started...

http://www.remington.com/products/firearms/shotguns/model_1100/model_1100_G3.asp What are the odds that this barrel will be available to turn our "old" 1100's into "G3's" ? Is there some other secret ingredient that I'm missing? Discuss. Mike

http://www.gunsamerica.com/guns/976315429.htm Taiyo-Juki single shot I think it was a post-war clone that was quickly banned because it was a direct copy but I am still looking for more info. Model 37 maybe? Thanks, Mike

Have any of you kinfe guys seen the Blackjack Grunt ? I saw these at a local show today. They're made in Japan with AUS-8. Anyone? Mike

I have a buddy with an Express Magnum and he recently brought his Slide Assembly in to show me the large copper blob that was on the right rear top. There are a couple other spots as well. It looks like crap. He only shoots Remington #7.5 & #8 birdshot from this gun. It looks to me like a...

Howdy team, I've been looking at 1897's (again) and I was wondering if there is a preferred vintage for these guns. I've seen some made up into the 50's. All opinions welcome. Thanks, Mike

Howdy team, Does anyone know a good place to buy a set of Competition Master stocks for an 1100, complete with the R3 pad? Thanks, Mike

So I pulled the stock off of my "new" '55 Wingmaster to see if I could get a better fit. I had noticed that it was sitting a little high and tight against the receiver. When I pulled it off, there was no bearing plate underneath. I had replaced the stock after I got it since the original had...

Howdy, I have a '55 Wingmaster with a broken firing pin. I ordered a new pin and spring from Numrich and it is here in front of me. When comparing the old combo to the new, I find this: 1. The new firing pin has a longer area for the spring. The seat for the spring is further towards the...

For $25.00. Yes it's a '56.

Well, I just got another 870. It is the Wingmaster that I've always wanted. It is fairly old (I am guessing from the mid 50's) but I've not put a date to it yet. Serial no. 435xxxV. It has a plain 28" fixed mod-choke barrel and a really small corn-cob pump handle. I mean the handle is...

I think the firing pin on my '56 336 is broken. Is this easy to replace with "normal" tools? Is there anything unique about the older guns versus the newer guns? Where can I get a pin? Any place online for instructions? Thanks, Mike

OK team, What is the name of the thin white plastic spacer between the stock and the pad and grip cap called. More importantly, where can I buy this stuff so that I can put the finishing touches on Mrs. 9mmMike's 16 Ga. Wingmaster? Thanks, Mike
