I have a friend who has an old remington 16ga autoloader that was recently stolen by a crack head. The state police recovered it in pieces and returned it to her re-assembled. The barrel is loose and it will slide front to back about a 1/2 inch of so with ease. Something is not right. I am looking for an exploded view of what parts should be there. The police didn't say to what extent it was broken down when they recovered it. I found the date code info on this site and it looks like it might be a 1947 model 11 sportsman.
On the receiver there is engraving on the right side of a pheasant and grass, and on the left side there is a flying duck over water with weeds in the water.
On the bolt it has The Sportsman engraved on it. The serial # is 1578917
On the barrel the date code is XSS.
Also says it was manufactured in Ilion NY
Can anyone offer any help here with either ID verification of that exploded view?
