New Member 1100 question

[Virginian]

If you go to the home page on this site, they have the barrel codes, but barrels can and have been swapped. What's your serial number?

[Virginian]

Looks like May 1975, and the barrel is likely original to the receiver. First generation 2-3/4" 1100.

I have gun books. Look on eBay for stocks. You used to be able to find some great deals, but the word is out and now you'll pay what it's worth. http://www.boydsgunstocks.com has some, and http://www.gun-parts.com/remingtonstocks has a bunch, and GunBrokewr and GunsAmerica also have some.

How can you tell that information?
