- In 1956 Remington introduced the Model 58 shotgun affectionately known as the Sportsman 58, the first gas operated semi automatic shotgun that they ever made. A predecessor to the mighty 1100, the Sportsman 58, although flawed, set the stage for the success of the 1100 and brought Remington into the "modern" era of shotgun manufacturing. By 1963 the Model 58 was gone as the dominance in the market by the introduction of the Model 1100 caused Remington to discontinue the Model 11-48 and Model 58 and never look back. You can imagine how the 1100 impacted sales of the competitors offerings. The Model 58 is hard to forget if you had some love for it, however, and I have more than a little.
The example I have here is a first year 1956 production, 2 3/4'' 12 Gauge with a 28'' fixed full choke barrel that suffers from a few of the problems inherent with this design and here we examine those issues and pose a solution which we follow up on in the video linked below. I'm confident we will overcome this shotguns design flaws and make a formidable trap gun out of it. We also examine the design progression that led us here and where it took us into the future.

Excellent!
I'm happy you found one you like.
Great vid.
Another awesome video! The Remington trigger group is also similar to the 552 Speedmaster. 2 push pins securing the trigger group. Love watching your videos drop!🇺🇸👍✌️
I hung in there with you all the way. Thank you once again for your time and effort to bring these designs to us.👍👍👍🙏🏽🇺🇸😎✌🏻
Thank YOU for tuning in! I’m really enjoying the follow ups I’m doing on making this gas system bulletproof. I have a feeling you will find those installments interesting.
@@MilsurpGarage you bet I will👍
It took me three sittings to get through this one but just because of my hectic schedule. Always interesting and educational but this one was especially good.
Thanks for taking the time, appreciate it. If that wasn't enough there is a follow up video! Going to follow up with the options to bulletproof this shotguns gas retention system with a series of follow ups. Thanks for tuning in!
Great shape for its age.
Another good one. I do like gas operated shotguns, my model 11 is kinda unpleasant to shoot with my stout buckshot
We have one of these sitting in the safe, it is a 16 gauge...operational, it sees about 6 shells once a year, cleaned, and back into safe...we have some #1 buck, #6, and #8 shot for it, just in case...ours shows the scratches and dings of heavy use, but as noted, it still shoots fine...
Nice!
oh man thats a beauty!
Yeah.....always passed on these but they are really sweet. Love your channel and appreciate all the kind words you've had for mine. We should do a colab or a livestream chat.....podcast....something!
@@MilsurpGarage yeah we could do a collab! Not sure what, but something
I wonder why no one ever came up with a spring assisted pump shotgun? The Winchester 1300 almost seems to unlock on its own after a shell is fired so why not have a slight spring assist in slamming it closed? I know. Crazy daydreaming and an idle mind is the devils workshop!
😂!!!
Edit: there's nothing like having the field to yourself!👍👍
This mod 58 is very much like the winchester mod 1400. just a different bolt lock up.
I watched to the end 😂
Nice. I don’t end yours early either.
@@MilsurpGarage I try to keep mine to 15 min or less when I can, I lose a lot of people after 4-5 minutes.. Sad people have such a short attention span- I like you love the history and the technology, engineering and machine work that went into these guns especially back when everythign was done by hand... No CNC
The Remington Rabbit Hole 😮😲😀😊👍🏼
