Smith for Remington 1100

[Yingpin]

I wanted to see if someone can recommend a gunsmith to look at my sons Remington 1100. Last year during a round of sporting clays the bolt locked. Took it home cleaned it and had it apart and reassembled but something is wrong. Either a piece broke or is missing. I am located in Kingsville, MD.

Thank you

I asked this same thing a while back, here’s the thread with the suggestions folks had.

Any local gunsmiths for Old Remington 1100?

I was wondering if anyone in the Central Region (Carroll or Baltimore Counties roughly) knows of a decent gunsmith to repair a busted Remington 1100 LT-20 from roughly 1970-75? My father tried to explain it to me but I completely didn’t understand what he was saying, something about the “slide...

Not yet, my father passed away and suddenly fixing the shotgun for him didn’t seem so important anymore. When I get around to addressing it, I’ll more than likely be contacting Scott’s as suggested.

Thanks for the reply, I thought I searched when looking for the issue and did not find that. Sorry to hear about your father passing.

Neighbor had his do the same thing. 50yo gun. Sent it to Remington. They fixed it, gave him a new butt pad and a box of ammo for free

Maybe old Remington, I really doubt new Remington would service a 1100.

Yeah I would be very hesitant to send my shotgun off to new Remington in fear I may never see it again or not for a long while. Can someone send me a picture of their left side of the trigger assembly? I checked the issues with the action bar identified in the other thread but I dont think that is my issue. I do however have some shiny metal that caught my eye shown here and wonder if this could be causing the issue.

The issue is that when everything is put together the bolt will not slide into the open position, something is preventing that. When the trigger group is out or not all the way in the bolt slides freely.
