Description:
General Specs: Remington, 1953, 28 Gauge, 5lbs. 15oz., Modified Chokes, LOP 13 1/4", DAH 2 1/2", DAC 1 3/8"
Serial Number:  4008127 

The Model 11-48 was the first new shotgun produced by Remington after the Second World War. Production ran from 1949-1968, during which time there were approximately 455,000 made. The Model 11-48 is a semi-automatic recoiling barrel action shotgun and was produced in 12, 16, 20, 28, and .410 gauges, with only about 18,000 being made to chamber the 28ga shell – the least produced of all 11-48’s. This example, serial number 4008127, manufactured in 1953 retains 98% factory finishes on the barrel and receiver. The 25” barrel is fitted with a silver bead and is choked modified. The furniture shows some honest field wear, and on the forend there are some damaged diamonds, however, the quality of the checkering itself is quite good. Weighing just one ounce under 6 lbs., this lightweight, quick-handling shotgun features a shorter length of pull and a 28-gauge chambering, making it an excellent fit for smaller shooters. Overall an honest gun with some righteous field wear that has served past owners well, and will do the same for you. Have a look at the detailed specifications and pictures below. Thanks for looking!
