I looking at buying a used 1100 Remington Shotgun. On the side of the barrel it is marked 3" shells, does this mean it will only take 3" shells or will it fire 2&3/4" and 3" shells? Being an automatic I thought it might be more sensitive the ammo. I know on every other shotgun I've ever seen it says 2&3/4" and 3" shells.

They will shoot 23/4 inch shells but you will have problems with anything less than 3 1/4 dram equivalent powder. You probably could reload some good 23/4 inch light loads if you feel like getting into reloading. Make sure the o-ring is kept clean. It is under the fore end and the tube has to be kept clean.

Hard to say, there were some early ones that didn`t do too well with lite loads. If possible take 3 lite 2&3/4 inch shells, load her up and see that they cycle the action ok. Wear and dirt can also make them a little picky. But if all is well, they are great guns.

Since we"re off topic and on Remington shotguns, perhaps somebody out there knows the answer to this: Will the butt stock from a Remington 870 12-gauge fit a 16-gauge 870 Wingmaster shotgun? (And is there a difference between the stocks on the Wingmaster and the Express?) My uncle gave me the gun years ago but I haven"t used it much because it doesn"t fit well -- he sawed a couple of inches off the buttstock because he has short arms. I have the exact opposite problem: longer-than-average arms, and I"d like to get a replacement stock for it (walnut to match the original) so I could be comfortable using it (and be able to hit the broad side of a barn, as I tend to overshoot with it). Around here, 16-gauge shotguns are not all that common, and I wonder if the receiver will accept the stock from a 12-gauge. Thanks for any light you can shed on this matter.

The stocks are supposed to be the same between 12 and 16 gauge. One of the 870 versions did have a differant stock,but it would fit all the 870's. I am much better with tractors than guns so hopefully someone can confirm this.
