This Sportsman 48 shows honest, good condition consistent with a shotgun that's spent its life doing what it was built for. Expect common blemishes to the bluing and wood — light handling marks, finish wear, and minor surface scuffs typical of a used hunting gun of this era. No structural issues noted; action, wood, and metal are all presentable and field-ready. Comes equipped with an adjustable choke for versatility across loads and ranges.
About the Remington Sportsman 48: Introduced in 1949 as the economy-grade companion to Remington's Model 11-48, the Sportsman 48 shares the same long-recoil action and machined steel receiver, with simpler finishing and a magazine plug to meet hunting regulations of the era. It's a dependable, all-American workhorse autoloader that's remained popular with collectors and hunters alike for over 70 years.
Photo Disclaimer (for listing)
Photos are taken under intense, high-definition lighting to give buyers the clearest possible view of the firearm's true condition. This lighting can occasionally make minor blemishes — small scuffs, finish wear, or surface marks — appear more pronounced than they are in hand. Please call us with any questions about the condition or severity of a specific blemish before or purchasing — we're happy to give you a direct, honest assessment.
