Does any one have disassembly instructions for the mod 11 . It dates to Dec. 46 and it's 16 Ga. with no reb . I checked Steve's pages and found just a parts list and schematic . The bolt is different from the Browning A-5 , I need to strip it down for refinishing ! Thanks ! Mike

Interesting."........it would still have to take down the same way, if you are not 'hot blueing' it you could leave the buffer in place.
There will be a hole on the other side of the receiver to mate up with it.
On the recoil cushion:
You Could remove it, but that would involve breaking the rivet. You would then need to have a smith familiar with installing it reinstall it with a new rivet. This involves drilling it from the front of the receiver using a drill guide made to fit the receiver and another guide for setting the rivet.
I'm not sure if baking at 325 degrees would damage it or not. The cushion is made of a material similar to the old fiber brake shoe lining used on automotive brakes.

Interesting. The one of mine I posted dates to March of 1922.
Does yours have the Remington trade marks on the upper and lower tangs?
Also, make sure the ser# on the barrel lug matches the ser# on the receiver and then post your date code. This one of mine matches and is coded AN. If yours is early enough it may be a Pre-11, what was known as the Remington Autoloading Shotgun or Remington Automatic Shotgun. It's been so long since I've seen one, I don't recall how they were marked.
If you can, post a pic of the ejection port side of your receiver.
He's your schematic. No instructions.
OK, got the pics from oneoldsap,
and there certainly isn't a notch. For some reason I didn't rcall ever seeing one without it. That is until I started pulling all of mine out. It's the only one of the bunch, but my 1949 Sportsman is also lacking the notch. Since the ages on mine jump from pre-war to '49 I couldn't even guess when they deleted it. My guess on why is that there may have been issues with the bolt locking up if the pin should slip sideways durring firing.
Now, for the teardown.
You're already ahead of the game since you already have the cartridge lifter out. It needs to be removed before removing the bolt.
Turn the receiver with the left side up and move the bolt back until you see the cartridge stop pin in the hole.
Carefully roll the receiver over and you will see the other end of the pin just behind and below the charging handle.
You need to make sure this pin remains aligned with the hole on the left side of the receiver. Use an 1/8" punch to push/drive the pin through and out of the left wall hole.
The cartridge stop is what this pin holds and what also keeps the bolt from coming out until it is removed.
Next, lift up on the action rod.
And slide the bolt forward. The charging handle will slide loose from the rear of the bolt as it goes forward.
During reassembly you will need to hold the charging handle inside the receiver and bring the bolt back in to meet it and engage in the T slot. You will also need to hold the action rod Up or it will be in the way.
The really fun part is reinstaling the cartridge stop pin and takes patience. A punch from the right side of the receiver can be used to keep the holes pretty close to aligned until the pin can be started into the cartridge stop.
Don'tcha just love hiden disassembly?
Now, to reassemble my parts gun.
