SOLD!!! FS: Remington V3 Field Sport 12ga Shotgun - 28” Walnut

[Wildabeest]

Selling my Remington V3 Field Sport semi-auto shotgun. It has a beautiful walnut stock and 28” barrel. Purchased new 4-5 years ago. I bought this gun because I really loved the walnut stock. It has more of a matte finish vs. the more typical shiny finishes, which I like in a field gun. But I just never really used it much in favor of my 25 yr old 1100 that I’ve shot forever and a newer Franchi. Gun definitely has less than 500 rounds through it, and probably closer to 200-300. Only used on a few trap shooting outings. Has never actually been in the woods. Has never had a misfire or ejection/reload foul. Looks brand new except for one small blemish on the pistol grip as you can see in the pictures. Has an upgraded Hi-Viz fluorescent green front sight that can be easily remove if you prefer the factory sights which are still on the gun. Comes with full, improved cylinder and modified choke tubes and wrench. This gun sells new for $900. Asking $600.

PM with any questions or offers. I’ll be traveling from Salt Lake to Bozeman/Livingston area in the next couple of weeks and can meet to make the exchange. Could also make arrangements eastern MT, WY or CO north of Denver along the I-90/I-80/I-25 corridors for exchange in person. Otherwise we’ll need to exchange via an FFL.

That is a sharp looking gun!

Thanks. I think so as well. After shooting the same shotgun for 20 years, with I don’t know how many thousands of rounds through it, I just didn’t have the patience to get used to something new. I’m going to go shoot my new Franchi for the first time this weekend. It seems to shoulder more naturally for me. We’ll see how it goes. I’ll either love it, or my impulsive mistakes will get ever more expensive. My 1100 needs a complete makeover, though, which is hard to justify when that will cost as much as a new gun. I think instead, I’ll hang it on the wall like a family picture and let it remind me of all the good times I’ve shared with it. It outlasted a lot of dogs!
