just got a brand new in the box never fired remington 1100 20ga bird barrel only for 300$ what do they sell for new these days??
You did buy the whole gun and not just a barrel new in the box right?

OK ... first off, there are TWO model 1100's. Old and New. The original 1100 is generally in the $300-$400 range used. The 1100 20ga price really depends on other things as well ... different checkering, year, engravings and so on will affect pricing BUT the fact remains that you got one NIB which is awesome!! The 1100 was replaced by the 1187. It was brought back as a competition model and .... I wouldn't use it as a deer gun IF it's a new competition 1100. We need pics to figure out what you have. So ... with that said ... $300 was a good deal either way!! Congrats!!
(that link above is for a new 1100 Sport which is really a competition gun .. very high end Remington shotty!! That's why it says Sport and not Hunter or chicken killer or something master etc. I almost soiled myself when I saw that price. LOL) I'm not at all saying you can't use it for hunting BUT if this is a new 1100, it'd be smart to keep it in the box or start shooting Sporting Clays in competition. :cheers:
