looks very nice.
Was there ever a Rem mod 11/ or Sportsman that had the magazine tube cut off that the Browning shotguns sport? If there is, I've never seen one.......... just asking since you guys seem to know on them...........
Da G, Just did a quick search and all have cutoff. Yahoo pic search model 11.
none of the shotguns pictured above have it.............
this is the only Rem 11 i have with a less than 28" barrel...

the barrel is 19" from the bolt face (in battery) to the end of the Cutts Compensator which is pinned to the threaded boss. the choke adds another 3/4" or so and i cut the handguard back under the barrel to clear the compensator during recoil...
The example here is in the 487XXX range , is marked "Military Finish" , has plain stock (FJA) and no ducks! :)
This is my favorite Model 11 which has the duck scenes on the receiver and checkered commercial finished (varnished not oiled) wood.

That is sweet! 1941?
Actually it is a 1943. The date code is B for January and should be MM for 1943 but somehow one of the M's was left off. My theory is 1942 was the last single letter (L) year code and this being January 1943 someone did not realize (M) had been used in 1921 until it was too late. The decision was then made to go to (MM). Maybe it was planned before January to go to (MM) but some didn't get the memo. A single M is 1921 and we know it is not that. See the chart below

are these dates pretty accurate? could there be another set of codes for older guns?
mine (shown above) has D T which is Septermber 1926 but the patent dates on the barrel are 1900, 1902 and 1903. i have no reason to believe its not factory...
the serial is 3084xx and it has the widow maker safety (sliding lever inside the trigger guard, not a cross bolt). i was under the impression this was a mid to late teens manufactured gun...
My 358480 was made in 29.
Hi Lt Dave
I guess anything is possible but based on the serial # as indicated by 1563621 I doubt it. Patent dates are not always a good indicator of the date of manufacture. Not sure what the patent dates are on my barrel but I will check it out. Thanks for your reply

What does grade "R" on the box signify?

R = "Riot"
