Description:
REMINGTON ARM CO. Model 11 Semi-Auto 20 Gauge “THE SPORTSMAN” Shotgun C&R
Very Similar to the Standard Model 11 Shotgun
Here we present a C&R Remington Model 11 “The Sportsman” Semi-Automatic Shotgun made circa January 1946, in Ilion, New York. John Moses Browning, one of the most famous American gunmakers, had his popular shotgun and rifle designs licensed exclusively with Winchester during the late 1800s. Having developed a new shotgun that would become widely successful in the “Browning Auto 5”, he attempted to have a royalty based fee system based on sales. Winchester didn’t buy in, so Browning took his work to Remington Arms. Remington agreed to manufacture the Auto-5 shotgun under the name of “Remington Autoloading Shotgun” in 1906. At its inception, it became the first auto loading shotgun to be produced in the United States. In 1911, the shotgun was renamed to the “Remington Model 11” and roughly 850,000 examples went on to be sold until 1947.
The Standard Model 11 and Sportsman are quite similar to one another, with the most notable difference being capacity. The Model 11 holds 4+1, while the Sportsman only fits 2+1 to comply with hunting restrictions in certain states. Additionally, there are slight dimensional changes to the fore-end, and a different cap tops the fore-end of each variant.
The Model 11 initially came equipped as a 12 gauge, though 16 and 20 gauge guns eventually came about in 1931-1932. The receiver sported nicely rounded edges and an integral pistol grip. The magazine housing held up to 5 shells.
The base Remington Model 11 was known as the “Standard Grade” and received the official Remington Model 11A designation. After that introduction, several other designations came out, including the Model 11R Riot Special, the Model 11P Police Special, the 11B Special Grade, the Model 11C Trap Grade, the Model 11D Tournament Grade, the Model 11R Expert Grade, and the Model 11F Premier Grade.
In the post-World War II years, Remington reintroduced the Model 11 in a more refined form and gave it the designation as the Model 11-48 of 1949. These continued in production until 1968.
