History

Introduced in 1963, the Model 1100 was the first truly successful gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun. The gas-operated system reduced felt recoil significantly compared to recoil-operated designs. The 1100 dominated trap and skeet competition throughout the 1960s-1980s. Available in 25+ variants over its production life, the 1100 established the template for all future gas semi-autos.
