stingerjg Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I havent heard anything on that. It would be sad if they discontuned such a nice shotgun. I just got mine last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chp5 Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 That's a shame. I love mine, although I do have to clean it from time to time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosby Posted February 1, 2005 Share Posted February 1, 2005 I just got off the phone with the Remington Parts Dept. I was ordering some parts for my 1100CM. I asked the lady why the 1100CM was not shown on the Remington website and she said it was discontinued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was considering buying one (found one for $699 new) but what now...????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Religious Shooter Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 Why did they stop selling it? Not it enough sales? Or are they gonna come out with a revised one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 I was all hot to trot to buy a CM until I started asking around. You had to send them to a smith anyway, so why not just start with a $200-300 gun store special and get exactly what you want? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shoot decent shells and clean it (which I hate doing), and it runs fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EricW Posted February 2, 2005 Share Posted February 2, 2005 chp, You have to get it modded to do reloads quick. It is just my exceedingly unpopular opinion. Everyone else on earth thinks I'm dead wrong, so take it with a shaker of salt. We've been down the road before, so I'll spare everyone the agony.

I did Dremel the receiver in front of the tube. Is that what you did? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike.45 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Eric, You are not alone ! I have seen the light !!!! I am one of the unbeliverers who questions what the CM actuallly offers - my stock 11/87 Standard / limited gun has the same specs as the CM but is £200 ($400) cheaper with no difference in build / quality. I have always thought that the CM was a cop out and they simply added on bits that most people added on as standard. I shot a brand new CM last weekend that had only 150 shells through it and it was bloody horrible - miles away from being custom ready - Remington did make a shotgun that sounded like they were producing a custom gun, but nobody would buy an STI that was as rough and un-tuned as a CM! I am sorry if this upsets Remington fans.....I used to be one of you !! ... but contact Jerry at RockingHTactical for the best limited guns money can buy.... or ...and I hate to say it...buy a Benelli M1 !!!!

If you poke around this forum, you'll probably find some pictures of the job that I posted. Without that, I simply just don't know how you can possibly stuff shells in fast enough. I tried the gun before and after and there's just no comparison. A stock 1100 is just totally unusable for anything besides a lamp post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhino Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 I'd like to get my trusty old 1100 modified for "thumb pinch free" loading, but I don't have a backup to use while it's in the shop! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Irishlad Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Remington probably had to ask Walmart what models they should sell. I wonder how well their 1100 16 gauge field model sells? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycanthrope Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Remington probably had to ask Walmart what models they should sell. I wonder how well their 1100 16 gauge field model sells? Likely a lot more than Comp Masters.... 3 gun shooters are an extremely small population to market to (heck, the majority of the general public has no idea what USPSA is). Now...if they would have marketed it as a "home defense" 1100 with "applications in competition" the general public would have had more interest and may have been able to sutain the line.

dirtypool40 Posted February 3, 2005 Share Posted February 3, 2005 Remington did make a shotgun that sounded like they were producing a custom gun, but nobody would buy an STI that was as rough and un-tuned as a CM! LOL, I wish I had a list of the unhappy SV customers who knew they had just been taken for $2500+ BEFORE gunsmithing. My buddy has a new "site tracker" and it has serious SAFETY related mag / sear / thumb safety issues that should have NEVER made it out of the factory for $2700. But when you own the market....

mike.45 Posted February 4, 2005 Share Posted February 4, 2005 Hi Claudio, The light was no one in Terni ESC 2003 from Europe was shooting 11/87's except us Brits, and we were the only ones complaining about our guns breaking all the time !! Bright Italian Benellis did tempt me and I bought one but since then I have moved onto a different plane called Browning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
