along with the other gun related stuff we inherited from my FIL, 15-20 years ago, was a bunch of shotgun barrels that were up in the rafters of the basement...
the only Remington shotgun I retained was a Remington 1100... I have a buddy that's looking for an 870 barrel for his grandson, so I pulled them out last night, & wiped them down... of coarse they are all marked by brand, & have the choke stamp "full" or "mod" but the Remington barrels are not marked for what model they fit...
both Remington barrels I found have "rings" under the barrels... can I measure these to the back of the barrel, or identify them by the shape of the back of the barrel ( chamber or feed area ) ???
any help would be appreciated...
the Mossberg barrels are marked for the 500... just no model on the Remington barrels??? he had the 1100, & an 870, & a collection of 11-48's... I assume these must fit one of those, & perhaps most likely fit the 11-48's since he had a whole collection of those... both barrels are 12 ga one a 3" vent rib with a full choke, maybe 32" & the other a 2 3/4" non vent rib modified at maybe 30" & both look to have the rings at the same distance from the back of the barrel, & ( at least outwardly to the untrained eye ) appear to be the same at the receiver end...
