I picked up a Remington Model 11 in 20 gauge that has a Cutts Compensator installed.....my question is did remington ever install Cutts on field models? I know they did on some Model 11's that were used by the military.....but I have found nothing that suggests they did on field models. The reason I ask is the gun is 98-99% and I can't imagine going to the trouble of installing one of these and then not using it(I guess extenuating circumstances could dictate otherwise)....any way and insight would be appreciated!

I don't know an absolute answer, but you might look for a choke marking on the barrel. Remington put Cutts on Model 31 pump guns at the factory after WWII, I had one, and when they did that there was no choke marked on the barrel.

Well I finally had a chance to look and no choke was marked on the barrel, so maybe it was factory.....I'll continue to do some more investigation. Did take a couple of pictures though

I have one that was my Grandaddy's. He purchased it after coming home from WWI. A lot of great memories with that one. A fine shotgun.
Yours looks like a dandy. His was also a 20, with a 26" IC ribbed barrel. I always shot it better than any other shotgun.
I hope you have good huntin with yours.
There is no accounting for taste.
Experience is a great thing as long as one survives it.
Generally, there ain't a lot that separates the two however, Barely making it is a whole lot more satisfying than barely not making it.

Nice Model 11. I've long wanted one in 20 ga. Mine, a 12 ga. is a fine old shotgun that I enjoy hunting with.

I saw a model 11 12 gauge at a pawn store for 300 bucks price was negotiable. Probably could have got him down 50 bucks or so. Is that a reasonable price?
