This video makes me nostalgic for an America that no longer exist . Quality, engineering and advanced technology in our firearm's along with pride and attention to detail.
Just got one today for 200$ had a little surface rust but got her home gave her some love and it shined up beautifully cleaned up her internals runs low brass without any problems
What a find! I had to trade 5 times to wind up with one, it took 2 years! If I start with what I traded 1st, I have a grand in mine. It's a 1967, it appears to have never even been fired....
Got one a few months ago. 190$. 4 shot magazine and a cutts compensator. Decent shape, i think it's from the 1960s. It's a nice looking gun, but finding extra chokes for the cutts is impossible here.
I have had an 1100 skeet for 40 years now. Used it for skeet ,duck rabbit and deer ext. Still works great and it has been through a lot. The Best! Thank you Remington.
i traded mine way back in 82,now i have two just like it. same year, same barrel length, same choke. thank goodness i had sense to get back to the 1100 with the little time we have left. i love this video.
With the cost of quality semi auto shotguns these days a lot of people are picking up a lot of these older Remingtons. Receiver milled formed a single block of steel. They still come in at about 8lb. An American made product. Remington 1100 set the standard. I just picked up a 1100 special field with the english stock great bird gun made after 1986 it has the screw in chokes. They made a million 1967 Camaros as well. How many do we see on the streets today? Time to start grabbing them up guys.
I inherited my grandpas. I love this gun more than any other I have. Gave it to my great uncle so he could have all of his brothers guns and I’ll inherit it again one day.
That was a great vid to see. I have an 1100 and it's a really good, very durable, light recoil shotgun .........and it's WAY better than the modern "versamax".
I didn't know there were infomercial-length adds in the 60's, especially since there were only 3 stations, and I've never seen any ads for a make/model of a gun even on cable networks with outdoors-themed programming. Not only was it long, it was documentary-style at mutliple locations and probably expensive to produce.Would this air early saturday mornings or something? Were there other 15 min long documentary style ads for other products?
Ahhhh yes, the Remington 1100 jammamatic. I’ve pulled literally hundreds of sporting clays tournaments and probably 1/2 the jams I see are by this gun. My brother had two and both of those were unreliable as well.
Disagree. Inherited my gramp's 1967 version and the failures disappeared when I learned to replace the o-ring after every session - 100 rounds or so - and wire-brush the gas port collar area with CLP to remove the carbon.
If you saw one of these jam it was because the owner was running the original 30 year old o-ring… I’ve put thousands of rounds through multiple 1100’s and never had a jam. Other than a broken extractor once I’ve never had an issue with an 1100 or premier/SC 11-87.
Zach B. Sadly no, Remingtons quality control has gone downhill fast. In fact Remington is going bankrupt. I Wish they were though, glad I got mine while they were still good.
God I used to LOVE this country.

Hunted and shot skeet with my 1100 for over 30 years and I still use it now.

I believe these would have been distributed to retailers, shooting ranges, and armorsmiths as tapes to encourage sales
Have my grandpas 1100 Lt 20 special in 20 ga mine was made in 1984,
The best gun
Можно уточнить модель ? Здесь показанно без прицельной планки, что это за модель ?

What an ugly thing to say...Reloads are the problem.
