Try www.vintagesporting.com & Remingtons web site usually lists web sites that carry older parts but that section is being rebuilt right now. Maybe contact Remmington's customer service and see if they can give you the list.
Why not have a competent gunsmith such as Carlsons cut the barrel and thread it for screw in chokes.

HI and good morning Markd.
Carlson's dont list a sixteen tube setup.
I know they are ugly as home made sin, (cutts) but they work very well. Try it first before you whack it off, (with cutts, friction set up for light loads, due to compensater). Think back, didn't your uglest girlfriend love you the best? With patience you can get other tubes, (E-BAY) Corson's Barrels has them in full choke for sixteen.
I'm an old hunter and like adjustable chokes, you have unlimited adjustment, you are stuck with tubes and fixed chokes with however it patterns.

Hi, again Markd, thanks texnekkid for post,(retro, I think he means old like me, heh, heh).
A word of caution, in some combinations of barrels and receivers the barrel extension will bind on left shell stop. Put it together with bolt back and with springs and friction pieces off, by sliding barrel in and out you can tell if it binds and observe operation of shell stop. Rarely do you need to adjust clearance, then only a few thousanths between ramps,(fitting barrel to receiver rather than changing shell stop lets you use other barrels as before). You can feel when stop ramps up on extension and tell if it is binding or not, twist barrel back and forth with finger on shell stop, if you feel any movement at all , you're good to go shoot a train load of shells. Also check clearance between barrel and forearm with barrel in battery position, if you have a little binding, it could be here, a little scraping is all that's needed, some contact and rubbing is normal. Some barrel extensions have a machined groove between ramps, some do not, you can compare with other one if you can. I hope to be helpful and not scare you, this is not very critical. I dont know your level of mechanical skill, if you need help contact me.

Thanks for the replies!
I think I will leave the cutts on this gun.
I just bought two extra chokes of e-bay for it.
So I will have all three chokes in 16ga.
This gun is in excellent condition!
I just don't care for the looks of the cutts. But I'm sure I will get used to it.
I have a couple Brownings and always wanted a sixteen to add to my collection. But just can't seem to find one in nice shape at a decent price.
I just happened to find this Rem 11 by accident. $150! I couldn't pass it up.
Thanks for all of your help.
