In Need of a Shotgun Gunsmith

[Herd_Bull]

I’ve been having an issue with my Rem 11-87 super mag for the last few years and it’s time to get it repaired. There’s a small piece of metal in the trigger assembly at the rear of the carrier/bolt release button called the carrier latch that gets hung up sometimes when cycling the action and prevents the bolt from closing all the way. I’m looking for a well known and reputable Remington shotgun gunsmith. I don’t have anyone locally I can take it to. Any recommendations? Thank you.

There was issue's with some of the early ones. Send it back to Remington or a Remington repair service center, the best way to handle the problem.

Thanks. I called Remington and they said they won't work on it, it's not a warranty claim and since the 11-87 SM has been discontinued, they don't make parts for them anymore.

Contact all the warranty repair centers, old and new, and hope one has the part.

You can find most parts on Fee-Bay

Thanks for the info guys! I really like these guns but the lack of parts is making me think about other options.
