I think that's what they were simply called....before eventually becoming the model 10.

This is a trap one and these are bottom ejection.
Guess I needed something to eat those old shells.
It's a pretty long beast with a 29" barrel

I think they do still make many fine guns ....we just can't afford them.
Just the wood upgrade now would probably equal or exceed what an old classic costs for a whole gun.
I have a wood junkie in the family....hopefully he appreciates what I'm trying to do.

I think the Remington bottom eject pumps are about the only bottom eject not built on the Browning patents but were designed in house.

I am curious how the action differs from the Browning design in Browning and Ithaca and some others

As usual Junk you found another beautiful piece!

Remington did use the Browning design for the Model
17. When they changed Models Ithaca picked up the JMB design

The action is far more complicated....lol
If it breaks not sure if anyone alive can fix it.
Thanks Sir Finding then is easy.....paying not so much.
BTW it still works...and looks to be. Pre WW1.
My aimpoint was centered just below the barcode and that's where it seemed to hit.

I did send you a Pm on those ruger pamphlets.
You should talk to me especially with your user name.

Yo Chirro......you can still have your kid look at this.

Dang that is an amazing pump gun! Nice score.

Yeah, I see what you said about the breaking part, my kids have Neanderthal in them like Zee, stuff breaks all the time.

Actually, I had him try a Browning BPS this past trap season and his scores went up and he was more consistent, so you you are kind of right from a design standpoint

Than gun looks great for being over 100 yrs, nice find

WOW!!

Pretty old gal...nuce grab!

Slick!

There are examples like that, the Hepburn target rifles, and the M1917-based Model 30 Sporters which showed that Remington could play at the same level of Winchester for fit and finish. I think it was mostly WWII that drove them toward the "MORE! CHEAPER! FASTER!" production mindset. Clearly not the same company after as it was before.

I think if I was a serious shotgun hunter or clay-buster, I'd probably really like a bottom eject shotgun that deposits the empties at your feet / in your boat. As it is, I'm so programmed by the "combat" practicality of a gun that loads and ejects through separate holes that I tend to flee from the 37 and BPS format. Call it a character flaw.

I agree with Slug on the eject at your feet. I used an Ithaca pump for ducks mostly because it was the only full choke long barrel I owned. Shooting left with right eject on the Browning auto and Franchi often put ejecting hulls in my field of view.

The gun is a takedown so I got brave and did that.
Took the opportunity to lubricate it.
Then headed to the range for more testing.
It is still in time.....fired 3 fast ones.
Then checked effects at 25 yards.
First bottle I just aimed center.
2nd I pretended was a turkey head.
I liked the results.

Trap gun so it should be a fixed Full choke no?

Edit: Never mind, just looked at the picture of the barrel marked Full. That will work!

Dang that is just gorgeous! Every time I see it, more details pop!!
