Well, since you "need to sell off a bunch of stuff" and all ....that sucks. i hate thieves.
i have at least 1 1100 from the 70's, might be 2. i have a bicentennial model that dad gave me that I used and beat the crap out of hunting. i used it float hunting for years, that is not an easy life for a shotgun.
I see the prices of those, even rust damaged ones, and I'm out of the market. For now, at least.
Close to an irreplaceable treasure to me, the 1100 was.
The Mini was stainless, though. My rain rifle when bountying coyotes. Could not tell you how many times that little Ruger was rained on and never a hiccup.
I have another blue Ranch rifle, though. No other autoloading shotgun.
