Bear in mind these are GB pictures and the guns obviousely are not in my hands yet .
First the 16 solid rib gun with the damn doggy dick on the end of the barrel . Then the 20 . By the pics the 16 seems to be in nicer condition . And again I blame Frank and Mike for my buying these things

16-gauge Model 11.jpg When The Sportsman was first introduced in 20-gauge (1930) and 16- & 12-gauges (1931) it came with a three-bird roll-stamping on each side of the receiver -- S504154 01 Mod,.jpg S504154 02.jpg The Model 11 A, B & C grades continued to be built with a plain receiver -- 1030789 01 Model 11,.jpg In the middle of the 1930s they reduced the roll-stamping to one bird on each side of the receivers and started putting it on the Model 11 receivers as well as The Sportsman.

I searched for decades for a mint 20 gauge Sportsman skeet with original beavertail, hard butt, and vent rib. I finally found one. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find a Parsons market hunter's magazine in 20 gauge to go with my skeet gun.

Remington used to be a great gun company. My first "dream shotgun" was a 1983 Remington Model 1100 with a vent rib, 28" barrel and a modified choke. I shot many ducks, pheasants, grouse and woodcock with that gun and it is still my favorite in my gun safe. With warts and all. At one point I was going to have the gun totally refinished to make it "pretty" again. The smith I took it to do the work took one look at the gun and told me that if it was his he would keep it in its used condition and recall how it got there. I took his storied advise and am glad i did!

I don't think you'll ever find an extension for a Sportsman 20, 16, or 12ga. The forearm and Magazine bolt will prevent it. Will |
