Remington 1100

jerseygirl1
I recently took my Remington 1100 down for a thourgh cleaning. Which I have done many times in the past. After I put it back together it will not fire. I have taken it down and put it back together again and again to no avail. I tried replacing my trigger housing with another gun. The results the other gun still fires and mine does not. I've checked the firing pin. It is unbroken and looks damaged free. When you go to shoot it. It does not even leave a mark on the cap. So the firing pin is not making contact. I've tried to stick my knife next to the firing pin. That was a stupid move, broke my knife point. So the hammer is striking the firing pin. Or real close to it as far as I can tell. Any ideas?

    I have had a Remington 1100, 12ga, 2 3/4 shotgun for some time that has maybe had 20 shells shot thru it. It has a 28" improved cylynder barrell. It costs about $290 15 or so years ago. Anybody know about it would be worth now?

    Thanks.

    99% means the gun is as close to new as possible for being fired. It is almost to have something at 100%, so even if the owner can't find anything wrong, they list it as 99%, so if you find a tiny scratch or pit in the metal or stock then you can't say they misrepresented it.

    Generally the % relates to the amount of original finish remaining on a gun.

    I actually do shoot a 99% on skeet, but I use the Richard Daley pass the bar system. You take your first five scores, and then add them up for your score. After all, there's a reason he only passed after 5 tries.[:D]
