Hunting with a classic is always something special, so I decided to sell a nice piece of Remington History. It is a 1956 Remington Wingmaster 16ga with a factory vented rib. Vented ribs were definitely an upgrade back then, and not common on working man guns. It is chambered in 2 3/4" , 28" barrel, full choke. Gun is in remarkable condition and Bluing is perfect. It comes with the original paperwork and manual. I don't believe you will find a cleaner one anywhere.

Asking $800.00 shipped.

I feel this is fair considering New junky Fieldmaster is $600, and a cheap Mossberg is over $500 today.

I always wanted to use it duck hunting, which is why I purchased it. Thought it would be cool to hunt over some vintage decoys!
 
You will enjoy this!! It is a really nice gun!!

I have a 16ga Model 12 in similar condition to your 870, Jager. Had a similar idea to do the same as you with that Mdl 12 and the couple cases of these I squirreled away. Someday, maybe.

Great classic gun. 16's are under-rated as good field guns.

Impressive, super clean!
 
I have over 2 cases of Boss Bismuth in 16 gauge just waiting on this shotgun. I will use it on the nicer days and save my Winchester Model 24 for the bad weather days
 
Nice purchase! Fond lover of 16ga's.

Wish we had a lot more options for ammo up here in Canada. Alot of non tox options lately in the states popping up

With Boss now out of the bismuth game, it’s good you bought those 16ga loads when you did. Enjoy your new 16.

I also bought 20 pounds of #5 shot from Boss for my 16 gauge and still have about 11 pounds of #9 TSS I bought when it was cheaper for my 28 gauge

Sounds as though you’re set for a season or two.

I think most of us who hunt with 16s have learned to plan a bit ahead. Pretty sure I have somewhere between 800-1000 16ga TM and Bismuth loads on hand.
 
Shotgun received today and it's even nicer than described. I love it. Probably will not get it out in dove season but come duck season it will be my new good weather gun. I was able to get access this year to a private lake that should produce some good shooting.

This was my 2nd transaction with Jagger Waffen74 and both went smooth as silk. He is definitely easy to complete a transaction with and he ships fast.
