    Not too bad on the 1100 LT. I would like to find one at that price myself. A key point...there are differences between the older style 1100 LW and the 1100 LT. I have been told that the barrels of these two models are not interchangeable. This is due to the longer extension designed into the LT models. Using 1100 LWT is NOT a legitimate description of the shotgun you purchased when obtaining accessory barrels. Having a fiberglass stock (from the factory) it is likely the later LT model.Congrats!

    you are correct on the 1100, its the new one, I also have the older 20 that I've been told is built on the 12ga frame, hope this new one shoots just as nice!!

    This brings up the question of how do you tell which is which? I want to buy a barrelfor my 20 guage 870 & I could get no help from either the Remington web site or anE-Mail to them. Mine is a Remington 870Express Magnum.

    Black synthetic stock sets for the 20 Ga. "LW" were available from Remington recently cause I bought one thinking it was for a 12 Ga...Got it home and the buttstock fit the 12 perfectly, but I couldn't seem to get the 20 Ga. forend over the 12 Ga.mag tube... duh some times it's embarassing... This little junk shop way out in the boonies had about a half dozen of the ... I might just get the rest in case somebody else needs some..
