The Remington 1900 is very well made vintage double. Designed to be a no frills low cost utility grade gun. It is an A&D action, some have said Remington was lucky to not have been sued for infringing on the A&D patent. I have a similar gun, 12ga with 30" steel barrels and ejectors from 1905. It's choked Mod and Full, stamped 69 and MOD, with .014 and .024 restriction. Remington chokes have long tapers, 5 to 6 inches. With 1 ounce of #6 at 1200 fps my gun patterned 72% and 84%. I like mine. I have shot a few geese a couple of ducks and lot of crows with it. It rides around in the back of my truck for three months of the year as a backup gun should the one I am using fail during a hunt. When I first bought it I took it to my local gun club and shot two rounds of trap, I shot a 49 out 50. They are a quality double with zero collector interest and can often be found for a very low price. A great gun that you wouldn't worry about in the harshest environments such as salt water fowling. I have owned three Remington doubles, two 1894's and the 1900. I broke a top lever spring in each gun, that might be their Achilles heel so be prepared.
