I’ve had 1100 magnums freeze up, but not 11-87s (made right), in same conditions. The 11-87 is a better design for rough use, but getting one executed right from the factory after ‘92 or so, is a crap shoot, IME....I’ve had 2 good ones and 3 bad ones, right out of the box. The 1187 is a case where buying used is probably the smarter deal.
