Remington's new automatic?

[Owen Sparks]

Remington has unveiled a new auto loading shotgun. Have any of you seen one? I hear that they are still trying to get the bugs worked out as the first few released so far have problems. The design does look promising however. It both loads and ejects through the bottom like an Ithaca and the shell lifter goes up and out of the way like on a Mossberg pump. This should make for faster reloading (and we all know it's not how fast you shoot, it's how fast you can keep it fed that wins.)

This new gun also has some innovative recoil dampening features. If this thing flies it will probably

be offered in a more affordable utilitarian or "tactical" version that may be adaptable to our sport.

Anyhow, I'm curious.

It's been out, or at least was released a couple years ago at SHOT if you're talking about the 105Cti. Could be interesting but I didn't see enough of a difference to pay the price tag for it, and it was high.

I shot one a few months ago. Really liked it. Light like a Benelli and soft shooting like a gas gun. Thought hard about it and almost bought one. Ended up with a Browning Gold Evolve.

A quick search on Gunbroker shows them in the $1000 - $1200 range......

Got to manhandle one recently. It is lighter that heck, dont know how that transforms into recoil. It is definitely light, and the loading and ejecting is interesting.
