From its introduction in 1905 to WW-II Remington produced half a million 12-gauge RAS/Model 11s plus another 15500 Sportsman before they started serial numbering them along with the Model 11s. Meanwhile Parker Bros. produced about 112000 guns. Winchester produced their first million Model 12s along with several hundred thousand Model 97s. All those Fox Model B and Stevens doubles Savage produced after WW-II are a drop in the bucket when compared with the many millions of Remington Model 870s, Model 11-48/Sportsman-48, Sportsman-58 and Model 1100 autoloaders.
