Gun Descriptions

The Remington Model 11-87 is a semi-automatic shotgun manufactured by Remington Arms and based on the earlier Model 1100. The Model 11-87 remains in contemporary production, 34 years after being introduced in 1987. The Model 11-87 is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun. Upon firing a shell, some of the high-pressure gases from the burning gunpowder are diverted through two small holes in the underside of the barrel, forcing a piston and the bolt toward the buttstock, which in turn ejects the spent shell. A spring then forces the bolt forward, sending a new shell from the magazine into the chamber. This gas operation has the effect of reducing the recoil felt by the shooter, since the total recoil energy is spread out over a longer period of time than would be the case with fixed-breech shotguns. The Model 11-87 incorporates a self-compensating gas system design, which allows the gun to operate with a range of loads, from light 2+3⁄4-inch (7.0 cm) shells to 3-inch (7.6 cm) Magnum shells, without any adjustment by the operator. It is manufactured in 12 gauge and 20 gauge; both will cycle 2+3⁄4-inch and 3-inch shells.

The Winchester® SX3® Field Semi-Auto Shotgun uses a self-adjusting active valve gas system that cycles a wide variety of shotgun shells, while reducing recoil to provide you with fast follow-up shots on missed birds or for shooting multiple targets. The field proven SX3 gas operated shotgun action fires and cycles all factory 2-3/4", and 3" length shotshells, with steel, tungsten, bismuth, or lead loads. The elegant satin, oil-finish Turkish walnut stock has cut checkering for an enhanced grip, and the alloy receiver and steel barrel have a matte black finish. A brass front bead on the vent rib is quick to pick up in any light. The SX3 Field semi-automatic shotgun comes with a Pachmayer Decelerator® recoil pad with a hard heel insert for snag-free mounting. The chamber and bore are hard chrome plated, and the barrel is back-bored, using the interchangeable Invector-Plus™ choke tube system. A crossbolt safety button is located on the rear of the trigger guard, and the trigger group easily drops out for field cleaning. The Winchester SX3 Field Semi-Auto Shotgun is ideal for upland bird hunting, sporting clays, or an all-purpose shotgun. Includes 3 chokes: F, M, IC.
