The Remington 11-87 is a semi-automatic shotgun manufactured by Remington Arms. It is based on the Remington 1100 and was first announced in 1987. The 11-87 is a gas operated semi-automatic (autoloading) shotgun meaning that some of the high pressure gases from the burning gunpowder are diverted through two small holes in the underside of the barrel. The gases force a piston (and the bolt) toward the rear of the shotgun which in turn ejects the spent shell.
