I just came across this old Remington model 11.At least I guess it is.It has no model number showing any place I can find.It has the A5 look!It does have the remington info.etc.It has the Browning pat.info and different dates.The last date of pat.is June16,1903.The gun is in working condition,but I have not fired it,yet.The stock,both are needing to be replaced.That is the second reason for the posting.I would like to find both.I would consider new pieces etc.The metal is in ok shape for the age.Barrell is clean,no rust.The serial number is.....1385xx...seems to be a low number.I appreciate all input...

HK23,I also have an early Model 11,they are great shotguns. Mine was made in 1906 and still has the original wood. The metal was in rough shape so it was bead blasted and parkerized,and then I modified a set of A5 composite stocks to fit,just had to change the angle of the hole for the tang screw on the buttstock and a little grinding here and there,but it looks great & shoots as well. You can find the stock set (Ramline) for around $50,or there are a few places to get replacement wood if you choose.

Thats funny, I have someone offering my the exact same shotgun. I would be interested to know what the value is on one of these.. J
 
JBURGII,It all depends on the condition and the market. I've seen them go for $100-500 for a plain jane and have seen some of the nicer/rarer models go for a whole lot more. I personally will not give more than $250 for one,and it would have to be extremely nice for that,after all,it's not a Browning and I won't pay a Browning price for a Remington shotgun.
