Features & Specifications of Remington 1187:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The new shell would lodge in the receiver\/ejection port after the gun ejected the previous shell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It gives the impression that there has been some contact between the top of the shell and the top\/inside of the receiver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 3″ shells would make this problem worse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The 11-87 is infamous for using less oil, not more. Shooting in a cold climate makes the problem worse because the gun cycles slowly or poorly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n See if the problem goes away when you completely disassemble everything, clean everything, and use a dry spray lubricant instead of oil. Try modifying the shell as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If nothing else works, sell the gun and buy a better one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the bolt is shut, the shell feeds back onto the carrier. The gun jams as a result of the second shell ejecting from the magazine before the first one does after the first fire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The shell might not have been inserted into the magazine far enough. In other words, it prevents the feed latch from being fully engaged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The feed latch releases the shell too soon because it is worn, weak, changed, or damaged. It might become dislodged from its circlip-secured position inside the receiver.<\/p>\n\n\n\n To fix this issue, purchase a new interceptor latch and a set of circlips in various thicknesses from Brownells. Secure the latch with these new parts. This should fix the issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The gun fails to eject or feed because it would get really dirty. A 100-bird sports clay course could not be completed without the 11-87 acting out and cycling improperly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Between shots, you must maintain the pistol clean. It requires a lot of upkeep. Additionally, these guns are more vulnerable to field grit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There would be a lot of debris in the actions due to the chaff, dust, and old magnum shell powder residue. So, keep it clean as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The barrel of the Remington 1187 would come loose. It may also undergo some peening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Additionally, the other side of the barrel has a groove that a “bump” fits in to ensure that the barrel is positioned appropriately. That may occasionally fail to happen.<\/p>\n\n\n Check the bolt’s lock. The lock’s top edge may have a bur or something on the inner track may prevent it from dropping out as the bolt unlocks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Send the shotgun to Remington. They can fix the bolt lock issue (probably just by replacing it) and even the barrel issue by replacing both.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The barrel not seating or coming loose is a factory defect. Remington should fix it as part of the warranty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The link could become completely lodged inside the action spring tube. While resolving the issue, the channel the link rides in can also get roughed up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Use a small sharpening stone (such as a fish hook sharpener) to smooth off any rough edges on the receiver’s rails so that the link moves more easily.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Try an alternative spring if a Surecycle spring is ineffective. I would suggest you avoid that one. A new link can be ordered from Brownells.<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"Remington](\"https:\/\/gunanalyst.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/Remington-1187-Problems-1024x536.webp\")
