1100 LT-20 choke tubes
Posted: Thu May 17, 2018 4:16 pm
Greetings,
I picked up my Dad's 1100 LT-20 (he's 88 and sadly just can't get out anymore). The shotgun has choke tubes, but I couldn't find them all. I purchased a Rem-Choke tube and it is NOT the correct tube. I sent Remington customer service the serial number and asked what type of tube I needed. The said the gun was mfg in 1984, but swear they never put tubes in any 1100 20 ga prior to rem choke in 1987. Well.... I'm looking at a remington barrel with tunes in it!!
Pop keeps telling me he never had a barrel modified for tubes. At 88 he may have forgotten a few things, but when it comes to a favorite shotgun, I want to believe him.
Is anyone out there familiar with mid-80's choke tubes prior to Rem Choke??
The tubes in the barrel are short, like 1 9/16" with very very fine threads.
