openclassterror Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Arghhh....frustrating when you get different info every time you ask the big companies. Seems like if you don't get the guy on the phone who is directly involved in a product, the others just randomly give you whatever answer pops in their head. If somebody was able to supply a part number, then at SOME level it is in the system. Wish people could just be honest and say " I don't know but let me grab Bob/Mike/Jim/ whoever. He is on that project." Maybe they are just TOO big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDragon64 Posted February 6, 2014 Share Posted February 6, 2014 Agreed. I read out a part number Mark provided and the guy said part numbers are supposed to start with the letter F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't heard anything back as of yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhall Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 Anybody been able to order one yet? Any idea when these will actually be available? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan N Posted February 9, 2014 Share Posted February 9, 2014 See post 199. It could be months before these are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bradhall Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Saw that, I was referring to the gun itself. Trying to see if Im going to keep waiting or just pick up a regular tactical and mod it. The old 1100 is on it's last leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAFuchs Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Did the same, the parts guy said it isn't even listed yet but to try back in a couple months. I didn't have the part number at the time I called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USCSBarney Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 I called their offices in Madison, NC and they told me they are in production and should be hitting stores the first week or so of February. Considering we are past Valentine's and I can't find it anywhere, guess the nice lady was full of @$!. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheepdog566 Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 Really torn on waiting for this or buying a 26" synthetic and versa tube. I was thinking the 26" might be a little better if I want to go shoot some sporting clays. Would really make the krieghoff and perazzi guys cringe. Any one got a eta on delivery times?

I'm in the same boat. I think when these come out and we get some user options, I'll call Benny or someone and get their price for working over a 26" and see how it compares. Although I just watched a few videos of the new Competition model and I think I'm really digging that green receiver. I also have a nice (well, for me) O/U on my shopping list, something like the Beretta Silver Pigeon Sporting and yeah, the 26" VersaMax might be able to serve dual purposes to get me by until I can save up for that (a little better than the shorter Competition model) Edited February 17, 2014 by heckofagator Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toyotafrank Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 want to wait but not sure I can... May have to get the tactical and go.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GreenDragon64 Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 Is there somewhere I can find a pic rail? I've checked with Remington's web store and came up empty. I'm thinking about adding either a ghost ring rear or going open with mine and throwing a red dot on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickB Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 (edited) To add a ghost ring rear, you can use the Benelli LPA rear sight. You will have to drill and tap the receiver to attach the sight. The elevation screw will fit perfectly in the rear most hole in the VM receiver.

JRicks Posted February 18, 2014 Author Share Posted February 18, 2014 For those of you inquiring, the part number for the new lifter is: 409144 Should be F409144, but I'm betting that they will use all they have to build guns for a while before they are available to purchase separately.

Iowashooter Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Most of what I have seen is around 1400 but I found a website with $1251.16 as their price. All of them are put of stock though Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RPatton Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 Some good, some not so good. One thing seems to always be true, no matter what kind of box your new gun comes out of there is always something you need to do to it. I do like my mag tube from CA. Very well engineered. 'Entropy' is an interesting name for an engineering company. I would think ya'll would know the definition of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkCO Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 I most certainly know the definition of Entropy. I primarily do failure analysis through that company, so it fits well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gakracker Posted February 28, 2014 Share Posted February 28, 2014 (edited) There are many great ideas that fit into the realm of general, while others tend to be only specific to a few and this is where custom comes into play. Sad thing is that a lot of us see our heroes running something custom and we want one like it, though it might not be the best choice for us so we think everyone is shilling when our new toy doesn't fit. No one product is going to be the exact fit for all so be prepared to settle for the closest available or else sending it off! Factory made is never going to be a complete answer but done right they will get it close enough to be at a good starting point for the 'average' buyer and I will bet they are trying to keep it in reach of many who have never even heard of 3G.
