I bought a shell catcher for a Remington 1100. Its the metal kind with the little arm you can put up and down. I would like to know if any body has any tips or tricks to making this thing work correctly. So far it just keeps the shell from kicking out and it just stays loose with the breech open. I do not want my daughter having to try and reach in and dig it out. Any ideas?
I had the same problem with 28ga. finally took it off. probably should of fooled around with it more, but I was probably a fool for buying in the first place.... Wish I could help
Bend the wire up until it fails to catch the shell & then bend down just a little. Trial and error with the opening in the catcher is the trick.... Adendum...the top lip of the catcher should be flush with the bottem of the receiver opening
I had no love from the model you speak of, I bought the one that simply clamps onto the receiver. Must a simple piece of metal with a slight lip on one side. It seems to work, but then again, my 1100 deposits them just to my right slightly in front of me. Anyone getting annoyed should just wait their turn to shoot and not yell pull just after my gun goes off.
I believe the shell catcher dcb_wvu describes is the TS Shell Catcher. I have one on an 1100 that I bought about 30 yrs ago. They work very well. They are still being produced and retail for $10-$12. There are models available for different gun brands as well. Try Googleing TS shell catcher and you will find them for sale at many locations. Marc
What is the best shell catcher that I can buy for the 1100 that wont put marks on the gun?
We use the plastic snap-on type on my son's 1100. No scratches.

four34,
Find a gunsmith that still does the wire method of shell catcher. These don't mar the finish and are virtually invisible.

Throw that piece of sh-- away and get a T & S. If you are really worried abour marks on the reciever, use a big rubber band
Wrap the T&S with black tape before you put it on.
Drilling the barrel extension for the wire is a good option. It does require a little skill to do it right, but it works real well. The T&S shell catcher also comes in a plastic version. It is less likely to mar the finish. You can also put a little cloth tape on the back side of the shell catcher to keep it from ruining the blueing.
Give TS.com's very own "TRON" @ http://tronspace.com/default.aspx a try.
