My question is how many of you out there have seen any other 1900's with a straight grip stock? The stock and forend both have the guns serial number professionally stamped in the wood. I will have to try and get some photos of that tomorrow. If the gun was restocked in the past it was done by a very talented gunsmith. Unfortunately time has not been good to this 1900 and it has several issues with it. I have owned this shotgun for several years and often wondered about its past. I might just take it over to the Remington Society forum and see what they have to say over there. That site does not get very much traffic however. I realize this 1900 does not look like most others, that is why I am sharing these photos. I often wondered why they went to the trouble to doll up a 1900 when they had the 1894 platform to work with.
