Michael A. LaRocca
Master Gunsmith
The Ultimate Competetion Shotgun
Custom modified Remington 870, 1100 or 11-87
The shorter of the two 1100s is an
LGW exclusive design, the "
18-8." Starting life as a Remington 1100, the vent rib barrel was shortened to 18½-inches and a custom-made magazine tube was added for eight (
7+1) rounds capacity. Offers unprecedented reliability and ease of handling. With the rest of
LGW's custom modifications, that little fella would spit
fire from the ports and command spectator attention during the Rolling Thunder portion of bowling pin matches! Eight fired hulls in the air simultaneously tends to draw people's interest!
