It's a sin to not hunt with a gun like that.  Best to just give it to me!  Lol

I had one of those in my hands ready to buy brand new back in the early 90s. I decided to buy the sp-10 instead. I did pick up a beautiful 11-87 greenleaf last year and killed some birds with it.

Remington made some cool 11-87 guns in the early 90s. Bottomland greenleaf tree bark and realtree finishes. WISH I had bought a truckload and stored them........ what a special moment in time it was then.

Aw yes. The days when you could buy a turkey shotgun without a raised comb, rifle sights, or all the other bells and whistles. I don't buy many guns, but if I could go back, I'd  buy a bunch!

Nice! Don't see many of those floating around.

Nice find.

I have an 835 in RealTree 20/200.  I bet many on here missed that one.  It didn't stay around long.  They advertised that it blended equally well at 20 or 200 yards.

........... RealTree 20/200.

IMHO the single best camo pattern ever devised by ANYONE.

Not only one who remembers it, but a fan! :icon_thumright:  Did not expect many to remember it.  That pattern sure seemed to fall out of their lineup quickly.
