The Model 11-87 succeeded the 1100 as Remington's flagship semi-auto, featuring a pressure-compensating gas system that handles both 2.75-inch and 3-inch magnum loads interchangeably without adjustment. The self-compensating system was a major advance over the 1100, which required different gas rings for different loads.
