Remington 1100 Tactical 4 Review
By: Neil Dobson



  

Remington Arms Company, Inc. was founded in 1816 by Eliphalet Remington in Ilion, New York, as E. Remington and Sons. It is the oldest company in the United States which still makes its original product, and is the oldest continuously operating manufacturer in North America.

It is the only U.S. Company which produces both firearms and ammunition domestically, and is the largest U.S. producer of shotguns and rifles. After a 12-year absence in the handgun market, Remington announced the Model 1911 R1 in April 2010, slated to be available through select independent dealers beginning June 2010.

The last handgun produced by Remington Arms, the Model XP-100R, ceased production in 1998. Its products are distributed in over 60 foreign countries, making its base wider than those of its competitors.
Remington has also developed or adopted more cartridges than any other gun maker or ammunition manufacturer in the world.

Remington is part of the Freedom Group, owned by Cerberus Capital Management.The Remington 1100 tactical is a gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun, popular among sportsmen, and law enforcement/military officials.

Designed by Wayne Leek, the Remington Model 1100 tactical was introduced in 1963 as a successor to the Model 58 and 878 gas operated shotguns. It found immediate high levels of acceptance, due to a significant reduction in felt recoil, excellent handling characteristics and reliability.

The Model 58s had supplanted the recoil operated Model 11-48, which retained the long recoil action of John Browning's original design, present in the Remington Model 11 and the Auto-5. All models of the 1100 tactical are gas operated, with a mechanism that noticeably reduces recoil.

Several variations of the Remington 1100 Tac 4, in 12, 20, and 28 gauges, and .410 bore are still in production as of 2011. The Remington Model 1100 tactical ushered in the era of truly successful and reliable gas-actuated auto loading shotguns, and it is the best-selling auto loading shotgun in U.S. history.

When it was introduced in 1963, the Remington 1100 tactical was an immediate success with skeet shooters in particular. The gas-operated action of the model 1100 tactical reduced felt recoil. The 1100 tactical is also a popular trap shotgun. Versions with high ribs and Monte Carlo stocks are available.

N Dobson has had extensive training and operational experience with both Military and law enforcement agencies.
