Remington 1100 LT-20 20ga

The Remington Model 1100, introduced in 1963, was a groundbreaking gas-operated semi-automatic shotgun designed by Wayne Leek and Robert Kelley as a successor to Remington's earlier models like the 58 and 878. It revolutionized autoloading shotguns by reducing felt recoil, improving reliability, and becoming the best-selling semi-auto shotgun in U.S. history, with over 4 million units produced across various gauges.

The LT-20 was a lightweight variant specifically chambered in 20 gauge (2¾-inch shells), emphasizing portability for field use like upland bird hunting, skeet, and clays. It evolved from the earlier LW-20 (Lightweight 20), produced from 1970 to 1976, which featured a short barrel extension similar to the Model 870 pump-action shotgun. In 1977, Remington replaced it with the LT-20 (Light Twenty), incorporating upgrades such as a standard-length barrel extension with an integral ejection stud and an enlarged ejection port for smoother operation. Early LT-20 models had a mahogany stock, which was switched to walnut in 1978; by 1979, the Magnum version was modified to accept interchangeable 2¾-inch barrels for added versatility.

The LT-20 gained legendary status in 1978 when it set a world record for the most rounds fired from an autoloading shotgun without malfunction, cleaning, or parts breakage—over 24,000 rounds—highlighting its exceptional durability. Production continued into the 1990s, including specialized versions like the Youth model with a 21-inch barrel and synthetic stocks for competition and tactical use. Though the broader 1100 line persists in limited forms, the LT-20 remains a sought-after collector's item today, prized for its balance, low recoil, and historical significance in American shooting sports.
