I love the way you used the mistake and putting the gun back together as a learning opportunity. In addition, the camera work and narration were fantastic. Thank you so much for your work!
Just bought a 1100 in 410 from my gun shop buddie for $35. Thing was found in a flooded basement. It wasn't sitting in water but it was still heavily effected by the moisture. Just finished brass wire wheeling all the internal parts and the internal contact points. Got it to cycle perfectly. Since the blueing is destroyed, I'm not sure weather to strip it, sand it and re-blue it, mirror polish it, or give it a mustard patina. Thanks for making this video. Made it really easy to get the job done. Have a good one man.
Just inherited an 1100 from family that was highly neglected and ripped it apart. I was sitting there looking at all the pieces, unsure of mainly the second washer and decided to come to YT. Thanks for the thorough and clear video!
Great video and 1100s are awesome guns.. I do believe that the shell latches are staked in from the factory. I’m surprised yours stayed in with you sliding it back in the way you did. If it ever doesn’t stay in place, or falls out, a staking tool may help you out with getting it reinstalled. The two marks on the inner part of the receiver you referred to are where it was staked the last time. Keep up the Remington videos!
Muy buen tutorial para desarmar la escopeta Remington modelo 1100, yo tengo dos, y es una maravilla, me hubiera gustado que desarmaras el mecanismo del triger, se que es un poco complicado..!! Ya la he desarmado esa escopeta, pero no desarme la culata..!! Tienes un muy buen taller de herramientas..!! Excelente video..!!
Great video and explanations step by step. I have both a 12 and 20 1100 and replaced the gas O rings. Guns do not cycle consistently after my work! For years they have been just fine. Pretty sure the piston pieces are kissing properly. The metal under them seems very caked up with years of use. What would you use to clean the metal spring housing where the piston parts sit?
I use Hoopes #9 and a tooth brush or Q-tips. Nothing that will scratch, I think any good quality gun cleaner will work, I just really like Hoppes (smells good too :)) Let me know how it goes.
Fantastic video, thanks for taking the time to make this. I have a loose charging handle, it looks like it is related to the spring at the 20:42 minute mark on the video. Any tips for disassembly on this? My handle actually fell out bird hunting, but I was able to recover it with a magnet. Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Let me pull mine apart and take a closer look at that, sounds like maybe a worn out spring. Has your shotgun been apart a bunch of times, wonder if charging handle wasn't fully seated during last install?
@@mattsgaragediyYep mine is 20 years old an has been disassembled for cleaning a lot. Thank you for the response, and your help, I really appreciate you.
@@final_judgment two things, first look at the handle, if the part that interacts with the spring loaded ball looks worn or rounded I would consider replacing it. I am referring specifically to the notch that is cut out...it should have crisp edges. Second, there is a pin and rod system that puts pressure on the ball. You should see the rod protruding out the back. Just below the rod is a small pin that should be able to be driven out sideways to release the assembly and allow for spring replacement. I believe that you need to press the rod into the housing(towards the ball ) and then drive the pin out sideways. Mine wont come out so I am going to soak it with penetrating oil for the weekend and then try again.
@@mattsgaragediy Thanks again. I purchased two handles from Ebay new old stock, both have play leading me to think it is the spring. I found a "new" charging handle detent spring on Ebay so I will attempt this repair when it comes in. Crazy that Brownell's and Midway no longer seem to stock parts for these. Anyway thanks again for the explanation above, I really appreciate you.
@@final_judgment you bet, good luck with the repairs, I am still gonna pull mine apart once I get the pin freed up. My go to for parts is Numrich www.gunpartscorp.com they seem to have most hard to find parts.
The video is great! Thank you! I just bought a Remington 1100 .410 Sporting. It was jamming/double feeding. Then I made the mistake of pushing the button on the bottom to close the action then I couldn’t get the action open. I started following your video to take the gun apart, and worked perfectly until I got to the “feed latch” (3:49). It won’t budge. I’ve been soaking with Ballistoil for 6 hours. Any ideas on the latch or my other issues I’m trying to solve?
First, thanks for watching! Keep soaking, I would potentially do that several times a day for 7 days. even use different brands of penetrating oil if available or acetone ands trans fluid mixed 50/50. with a flashlight and dental pick or seal pick try scarping behind the raised end of the feed latch incase something has accumulated behind it the is preventing it from depressing. Any signs of rust or corrosion?
Hey Barney, that is part of the seal system, no crimp in the magazine tube. You would have to add a spacer into the tube to limit shells based on your local hunting regs.
Does anyone know if the feed latch is the same for the 1187? Took mine apart for a deep clean and had that piece come off and am struggling to get it back into place.
I believe they are, but I don't have a 1187 to compare. I googled 1100 / 1187 feed latch and several suppliers sell the same part for both so based on that I am assuming so. Hope that helps
Quick question? When i rack the slide i can hear the spring inside the rear stoc. Does it have to be cleaned or is that normal hearing it thru the stock? Just sounds noisy
That seems strange to me, not sure what would cause that but I would start with a good cleaning and checking that the bolt through the stock to receiver is tight.
Hey mate, looking everywhere for the plunger that goes in the extractor of the bolt. Can't find one anyplace. By chance do you know the dimensions of it?
Hey is this the part you need? www.gunpartscorp.com/products/2042770c I've also attached a schematic of parts, lots of theses are available thru Numrich gun parts www.gunpartscorp.com/gun-manufacturer/remington/shotguns-rem/1100/parts-list-rem1100 Let me know if this helps
I would like your recommendation....BTW your video is very good...The problem I'm having is that the action is binding and used your video for a good cleaning...the shotgun is a 1100 20 gauge magnum. Purchased used a few years ago, now action is sticking, even pulling action to rear it sticks and can hold itself open without it being locked to the rear....after cleaning and careful inspection, it appears the hammer is making contact where the hammer goes through the center of the action link...I can see marks on the sides of the hammer. When trigger group is removed the action is smooth as glass confirming the trigger group causes the problem...I am thinking about shaving off a few thousands off the sides of the hammer or inside of action link or slightly bending open the action link. What say you? Thanks Dennis. PS. I see nothing broken, but I did not release the hammer pressure as it was cocked to see if it has play in it...I should have done that. I'll try that next to see if something is loose or worn relating to the hammer. That may be it or why would it start doing this. It's still under investigation.
Hi Dennis, thanks for the msg. That is a new problem for me. I would caution filing etc. anything inside the trigger mechanism. I personally would try to replace those two pieces that interact with each other. Definitely sounds like wear so even if you get it working again by filing I would wonder if it will only be a temporary fix. Just my 2 cents. Let me know what you figure out
Is the O Ring supposed be seated in the groove on the magazine tube, or pushed closer to the piston seal rings? Thanks for a well done video and narrative.
From what I can see they are very similar but I do not have an 1187 available to make 100% sure. For basically cleaning you should be able to follow the same disassembly steps
I'm not sure I would call it sharp but there are some pretty crisp edges. You do want to be careful reaching inside, but if it is actually sharp there may have been some wear or lack of lubrication at some point. How old it the gun and are you the original owner or has there been a bit of unknown history?
Excellent video!!! You are a born teacher. My uncle gave me his 1100 trap years ago. I pulled it out and the serial number is extremely low hmmm. So where does a guy get parts for these just in case. Thanks again
Awesome, sounds like you have a piece worth keeping as a family heirloom. My go to for all parts is Numrich Gun parts. They have tons or parts and pieces for older models. The seals I just ordered off of Amazon.
My first stop for all parts in Numrich Gun Parts. www.gunpartscorp.com They have a ton of parts for all makes and models. I have had the most success finding parts for older guns with them
Hey Manny, I do not have a 153 to make an exact comparison but they do appear similar and many of the steps of disassemble should be the same. That being said do not interchange parts or force anything that does not want to come apart easily.

Glad you enjoyed it
Is that a crimp in the magazine and is that to limit the number of shells it can hold or for the seal to sit in
Hey Barney, that is part of the seal system, no crimp in the magazine tube. You would have to add a spacer into the tube to limit shells based on your local hunting regs.
The green plastic tube inside the tube reduces the magazine capacity
Easier to slide the front of the trigger group up and into the reciever before the back👌🏻 nice video👍🏻
Perfect, thanks for the tip

Hello! 1187 sportsman also dissemble too as 1100?

سلام.
نمونه این سلاح را در ایران دارم.
چگونه میتوانم قطعات یدکی این سلاح را خریداری کنم.؟
از کسانی که اطلاع دارند راهنمایی میخوام.
No parts can be shipped from Canada or the United States. I would check for parts from China or United Arab Emirates.
Do you sell parts? Any information?
My first stop for all parts in Numrich Gun Parts. www.gunpartscorp.com They have a ton of parts for all makes and models. I have had the most success finding parts for older guns with them
Is this similar to the Remington mp153?
Hey Manny, I do not have a 153 to make an exact comparison but they do appear similar and many of the steps of disassemble should be the same. That being said do not interchange parts or force anything that does not want to come apart easily.
Is there anyone else who can buy a remington 1100 trigger?
Numrich has used one if that would work for you. Here is a link.

Not sure if you are looking for the whole assembly or parts but Numrich gun parts sells parts and ships to USA and Canada
