All,
This is a "I love My...." forum and not a bash Remington forum. You wouldn't drive your Ford Mustang to a Chevy Club 'meet' and talk about how great the Ford's are and how the Chevy's suck. If you don't like the Remington's then stay out of this forum. This is more like a Remington Club than a Remington Opinion forum, so I or a Mod will start deleting future posts that bash the Remingtons.
Regards,
Jay

He's not saying that you aren't allowed to bash Remingtons. That is your constitutional right to say what you want about things. He IS saying that on the site that he pays the monthly hosting bills for, you have to abide by his rules. You are free to create a website called "IHATEREMINGTON.COM" assuming someone didn't beat you to it.
Think of it this way. You are allowed to put an Obama sign in your yard. That is free speech. You aren't allowed to put an Obama sign in my yard. That's trespassing.
Unless you are joking and I don't get it. In which case, never mind.

Hey Crecca: you're spot on w/ your last question. And to propose an answer, I think "someone" wasn't paying attention in high school civics class.

It is ok to post YOUR experience, however it is not ok to come on and start telling someone what a piece of junk there shotgun is. If there are any further questions please feel free to PM me or post. Thanks.

Not that I like drama but I will stand behind my 870 unfailingly in any debate and dont mind if some numb nuts who can't appreciate a true quality shotgun wants to fire me up with a little unwaranted bashing! Bring it on sometimes it is fun!

Christmas Day 1978..........all the presents are opened and we are back in the den. I am 13 years old. I am trying to act like an adult. The fact that there was not a new shotgun under the tree had me a tad bit disappointed. But....I was trying not to show it. I look up and see my Dad coming up the hall. It is a sight I will never, ever forget. He is carrying a long green box and on top of the box sits a box of Peters shotguns shells (#8's). He hands me the box and says "Merry Christmas". Inside sits a 870 Wingmaster in 20 gauge. I still have it ! I have been a Remington fan ever since. Hope ya'll liked my story. It is all true.

I started shooting trap on Nov.5th 2009 and was bitten by the bug so I set a goal for the purchase of a shotgun. When I break my first 25 I will buy a used 1100. Well, I did it about three weeks ago and purchased an 1100 for $300 from one of the fellows in the trap shooting group. It is old, ratty and has no swagger factor but it WILL BREAK TARGETS!!!! I shoot against guys who have $15,000 and $20,000 guns and hold my own with them. Soft recoil, inexpensive and shoots great (28" full choke). I intend to purchase a second one for a back-up. It is a GREAT GUN!!!
IT IS NOT THE ARROW, IT IS THE INDIAN...

Just picked up a Remington sportsman 48 today from original owner in 12 gauge in almost mint condition.It looked different than most I have seen as receiver is plain with only ser# on right side and sportsman 48 on bottom by carrier.Come to find out this is a first run gun in 1948. What a find !
