This video showcases a vintage tactical shotgun, a Remington Model 11 semiautomatic (a Browning Auto-5 clone), customized by a police officer in the late 1940s or early 1950s. It features a Parsons 2-round magazine extension, a 20-inch cylinder choke barrel from a Remington 11R, and a Nydar Model 47 reflex sight. The Nydar sight, inspired by WWII aircraft gunnery sights, uses no batteries and projects an aiming circle for rapid target acquisition, similar to modern red dot sights. The shotgun demonstrates that tactical firearm concepts are not exclusive to modern designs, highlighting its historical significance and innovative features for its era. Access to this unique firearm was provided by the Bear Arms Reference Collection.
