Model 11 Remington Collection

Phil, I think that's the original stock. English Walnut doesn't have the figure that high grade American Black Walnut does.

I know I had a ball shooting 12 and 20 gauge Model 11’s at Rock Mountain this year . I hope to do that again next year .

I’ve seen a few blurbs about Remington once upon a time making what they called “Long Range” barrels for model 11’s and 31’s years ago . I’d be curious to know how much more if any was the constriction on a regular 30 or 32 inch full choke barrel vs one of these Long Range barrels . Until I see proof I’m gonna tend to think it was just a marketing ploy . The following three Mr. Noreen had posted on the Remington Society forum .

I’ve got two 32” and one 30” I think I’ll measure and see how much constriction they have since they’re rollstamped “full” . And maybe someday one or two of the marked Ling Range barrels will be available to measure .

Phil,

If you ever have the stock off for any reason you can confirm if it does or does not match the gun's serial number.

I would bet that you are correct, however, if you decide to part with the existing one just know that it does appear to be a factory Pre-1909 Tournament (D Grade) stock. If I am correct the serial number would be under the 60,xxx mark.

Good luck in finding a donor or having one made,

Will
