The Remington Model 11-87 is a gas-operated, semi-automatic shotgun introduced by Remington Arms in 1987 as an upgraded and stronger evolution of the popular Remington Model 1100. Core Features & Design * Self-Compensating Gas System: Automatically adjusts to cycle a wide range of ammunition-from light 2 3/4-inch target loads up to heavy 3-inch Magnum shells-without requiring manual adjustments. * Recoil Reduction: The gas operation spreads out recoil energy over a longer duration, creating a softer felt recoil compared to pump-action or break-action shotguns. * Gauges & Capacities: 12-gauge Standard tubular magazine holds 4+1 rounds * Weight & Build: Typically weighs around 8 to 8.4 lbs for 12-gauge models (with 28-inch barrels)
