I always clean my gun real good but while taking the rear stock off I ripped the gun apart totally oiled down everything good. I see many saying there 11-87 jammed or something broke I got this gun off a older friend he had killed many turkeys, geese, ducks and other game with it and I have had it for a year now killed a nice gobbler a fall hen many geese and ducks with it all with not a hick up. This 11-87 is a NWTF 25 th Anniversary edition I believe in keeping my gun more than clean. I felt I would give it some love before the season comes in but it's also late geese season now so might get some shooting in soon so I put the Remington shurshot stock on it she looks and feels great with this stock set.
One more pic.
Looks good man.
That's a sharp looking machine. I do not remember the 25th anniversary edition. I have a 11-87 in old mossy oak green leaf which I purchased in 1995. That little gun shoots quite impressive.
:camohat: She looks ready for Spring, great looking classic Remington. :drool:
Dr Juice you are right they are vary impressive guns mine has a 21" pipe on it. When I first saw it I was thinking that gun won't reach out there cause it's so short bo is that wrong and love how it handles walking in the woods being shorter I would not want it any other way now.
Sweet gun!
Thanks I'm going to buy a few boxes of shells tomorrow return the Williams fire sights I bought at Gander Mountain that when I got home and opened it they were dinged up used and had a screw busted off in the threads going to pick up the Tru Glo model like it but of course they want me to pay $20 for but they look better built we shall see.
Looks good...
Yeah a different look from its stock look but it's has a much better feel to it. This gun may be a little older but I would not get rid of it for the newest gun as it can shoot. Here is what she used to look like.
Very nice 11-87 -looks great :icon_thumright: :icon_thumright:
My older friend I got the gun from just stopped by I showed him it his jaw dropped he held it and said wow I like that a lot.
That's great! Looks awesome. I didn't put a thumbhole type on my old youth 20 because I wanted to use it for crows and didn't think the thumbhole would work well for wing shooting. Maybe I'm wrong!
I'm going to use it for hunting geese and ducks like this it feels real nice I can get on target fast with it. I'm putting a. Tru Glo Gobble dot on it just bought one on here can't wait and I had a gift card from Gander Mountian for some piece of junk they sold me so with that I picked up two boxes of Long Beards 3" #5 shot.
good looking shotgun
Thanks I love it I would not trade it for a brand new gun it shoots that nice. Just can't wait to try the new stock but I'll most likely wait till the gobble stopper red dot comes to get her sighted in with the long beards.
