Remington Versa Max Waterfowl 81048 Complete Specs and Full Gun Specifications

Fantastic Gun

I bought this gun 2 years ago and have put it through its courses. Trap league, numerous bird hunts, North Dakota, you name it... And I am yet to have a jam. Hunted in horrible weather, cold, wet, and still it never misses a beat. Shoulders exactly like a

Shoots well, but poor quality

I love the way the gun feels and shoots, very minimal recoil. However, after shooting only 3 shells of 3.5" steel BB's, the barrel had what appeared to be deep gouges down the entire bore. At first I thought it was wad fouling, but after 15 minutes w

Softest Shooting Gun

This is the softest shooting 12 gauge I have ever shot. I own both this gun and the Beretta A400 Xtreme. I hands down will grab this gun first. The padded comb, over sized safety, bolt handle, and bolt release make this gun easy to use with gloves (or col

Best Auto Loader Out There

I have hunted a full season of ducks and geese with this gun and I could not be happier with it. I have fed it all different types and sizes of shells seeing if I could get it to jam, but it never will. The recoil is next to nothing even with 3.5" ma

Fantastic Firearm

i am very pleased with this gun. amazing quality. the fit and finish is well worth the extra price. cycled case and a half of rio 2 3/4" 7.5 shooting skeet and didnt have a single shot slow me down. the gun is balanced, shoots extremely fast with ZER

solid gun

the gun functions great, but for the price they get for them you'd think the forend wouldn't be loose. Also the camo job is not as good as other guns of similar price. Overall this is a great gun but I would have wanted it finished better.

I love this gun

I bought this shotgun as soon as Remington would send me one and my experience has been amazing. It really is the softest shooting semi automatic shotgun. I have fed this shotgun a healthy diet of the cheapest ammo I can find to get familiar to the firear

Fantastic Waterfowl/Turkey Gun

I bought this gun during the 2014-15 waterfowl season, when I was having problems with my other shotgun. I pretty much hunt everything in the area with this gun. Ducks, Geese, Dove, Pheasant, Quail, and Turkey. For waterfowl and turkey hunting, this is ar

Great Gun

I bought my Remington Versa Max when they first came out and I am very pleased with the performance of it. Only downside is the fore end is loose from their design I wish they would fix that.

Beats Benelli hands down!

I have had two Benelli SBE II shotguns both of which would not cycle and ruined more than one hunt. I had the opportunity to get a Versa Max and took it and I must say I am very pleased. Initially the gun was not perfect, but the manual says if it is not

disappointing

The gun cycles well when it is clean, but the moment you take it out and it gets dew or wet or a tiny bit of dirt anywhere in/on the gun it wont reliably cycle. I can't tell you how many time last yr i came up to shoot some ducks and the bolt wasn't forwa

Favorite Gun I own

This is my favorite shotgun. Got it a week ago and patterned it with the Improved Modified choke with Black Cloud 3 inch 4s. Sweet pattern at 40 yards. Cycles anything I throw in it. It is more reliable than any other shotgun brand out there because of th

My Favorite Shotgun

I live to hunt anything that I can in Iowa, including dove, waterfowl, pheasant, deer, and turkey, and last fall I was in the market for a new semi-automatic 12 gauge shotgun. Being the avid outdoorsman that I am I needed it to be versatile, reliable, dur

Buying a Benelli

Went against everyone's advice and instead of buying a Benelli, I wanted to buy American and bought the first issue of the Versamax in 2011. It failed at least once every season. Started with the stock literally falling off, the bolt lever falling out int

VERY disappointed

Purchase the Remington Versa Max in December of 2014.

Shoots great but ...

It is the best shooting gun that I have. I like it better than my Benelli SBE and my Beretta A400 XTREME with Kick-Off.Cons: As others have stated the forearm does not fit very well, it has some play even when tightened as tight as possible. I have not ha

BEST SEMI IN THE MARKET

bought my versamax in waterfowl pro addition, right out of the box brought it duck hunting ¨(as I bought it mid season).. flawless, ran a few 3.5 inch to work it in a bit and managed to make one incredible hunting gun, the pro bore system is a fantastic c

Camo changes colors

I purchased this gun last October 2013 for goose hunting. No complaints on the function of the gun, as advertised it will shoot anything from trap loads up to 3-1/2 mag goose loads. Pattern tested very well with stock Remington choke tubes. My gripe is ho

Excellent semi auto

I love the feel and design of this gun. Shot 50 rounds out of the box after cleaning and no jams or issues. Very little recoil and great selection of chokes included. Can't wait to use it for duck season.

Love it!!!

Bought this versamax 2 years ago and have loved it since day 1.

Great Solid Gun

Just picked this gun up on the weekend after a salesperson from bass pro recommended it for me. I needed a gun that would reliably cycle any kind of load through it. I took it out today and cycled two boxes of 3 1/2 shells with no problem at all and immed

versamax review

bought this gun to use it and abuse it not to be a safe queen. after the 100+ light load break in period thats recomended in the owners manual before shooting heavier loads through the gun this gun is byfar the best shotgun ive ever shot. spits out everyt

Nice Shotgun

Bought this gun about a week ago and took it to a sporting clays course over the weekend. I was looking for a backup waterfowl gun to my Browning Maxus, as well as shooting an occasional round of sporting clays. Here are my pros and cons:

Good- maybe

I do not really know if the Virsa Max is good or not. I took my new camo one all the way to Canada goose hunting and the first morning of the first day the shell extractor finger handle fell off into the dirt somewhere. So I was forced to go to my backup

Best auto loader under 2k

This thing is exactly as advertised! Eats anything you can fit in it. From 2 3/4 -7/8 oz dove loads to 3 1/2 nitros. Shoots every time. No issues. Makes me laugh at the guys with big dollar benellis that still jam and need to "break in". Versa m

Very Satisfied - Look Out Beretta and Binelli

Bought this gun 3 weeks ago. Cycles everything from light trap loads to 3 1/2" goose loads as fast as you can pull the trigger.

the best

Remington versamax is one of the best shotgun I have . got it a few months ago , shot about a 1,000 round thrue it ( 23/4, 3 and 31/2 inches ammo ) works like a charms . Ducks season is starting in two weeks from now ,cant wait to put it in the action. I

Might be a lemon!!

After owning the Versa Max for 2 years and using it on multiple hunts it had performed flawlessly until opening day of goose. i managed to fire about 25 rounds of 3 1/2'' number 2 shells until the gun started jamming steadily. After further inspection i n

Remington Versa Max Semi-Auto Camo

I bought one of these about a month ago and was blown away at what this gun can handle. This semi will cycle anything you throw in it, no issues, all day long, mind you as long as its cleaned well after every use. The action will cycle as fast as you can

best gun I have ever bought

I just bought this gun today had it for an hour before I shot 75 rounds through it. I put 2-3/4 pheasent loads, 2-3/4" trap loads, 3" #2 duck loads, 3-1/2" bbb black clouds not one hang up. I mixed and matched loads and I could not get it t

first time ever shooting!!!!!!!!!!!

this was my first time ever shooting and it was a ball. this gun well i don't know what to expect but i tried this out and it was so much fun i got a 9 out of 10 and the sights our amazing. I would totally recommend this product. i tried this out at the n

Remington Versa Max

I bought a Versa-Max on 6-12-12, as this gun is advertised to shoot any load you feed it. Upon receipt of the gun the front site was drilled crooked, barrel pitted, threads for choke tube not machined properly, machine marks on receiver. The gun only shoo

VersaMax

Had a benelli super black eagle 2 for 2 years but wanted something new and picked this up in the summer and absolutely love it its way better than the benelli and the recoil is minimum. no jams what so ever... flawless

Best Semi-Auto Shotgun on Market!

After trying to get two brand new Beretta A300 Outlanders to cycle properly, I returned them both and gave the new Versamax a try. Wow! Points great and really does cycle anything you feed it! Have shot over 500 rounds of mostly low power clay loads in it

Best Autoloader on the market

This shotgun is fantastic after shooting it heavily throughout a busy waterfowl season. I don't know that I would claim that the recoil is equivalent to a 20 gauge, but it is far from punishing. The weight is just right as anything lighter would kick hard

Best Shotgun I've Shot

This is the best shotgun i've shot and owned. I own the synthetic 26" barrel. No jams, no problem, has spent lots of time on the range and in the field.

Remington Versa Max Failed After One Box of Shells

First of all, I am a big fan of Remington guns. I have not had any problems until now, but these are major problems that paying customers need to know about. I purchased my new Remington Versa Max 28’’ barrel in MODB. I thought this would be a great shotg

Good Gun

I really like my versa max but i initially had some issues with 3 1/2" shells but after firing a few hundred rounds the problem went away. The gun feels very nice and the stock adjustments and sights are excellent. Read up on the chokes as i was surp

Hurry up dove season

I love my VersaMax. I bought it after dove season last year and have only shot trap with it so far. It works with all type of shot shells. The only reason I gave it 4 stars is that it will not let you use Remchokes in it. You have to use Remington Pro-Cho

Outstanding Gun

Everything they promised! Cleaned it out of the box then headed to the field. I cycled several different rounds 2.75 and 3s and loved the way this gun performed. My only complaint is that I have to wait for dove season to really put this gun to the test!

This is a decent new generation semiauto.

This shotgun surprised me with my first test shoot. I also own the Browning Maxus, so I will draw a few comparisons. The fit and part quality are not up with the Brownings or Benellis, but it's good [except for the cheesy plastic fore-stock]. This gun is

Versa Max is here to STAY!

The Versa Max is everything they advertise. Shoots any, and all 2 ¾ in up to 3 ½ in flawlessly! Significantly reduces recoil but all 3 ½ in loads will give you a good lick on the shoulder no matter what gun you shoot. At first I had a little bit of buyer’

VERSA MAX 26" AP CAMO-----Nice!!

Really like this gun so far. Turkey choke adds an inch to the barrel. Comes with 4 chokes, choke wrench, trigger lock, length of pull add ons, tool for removing gas pistons and a very nice case which requires break down to fit. Drilled and tapped for opti

Great Shotgun!

I bought this shotgun this fall as it promised to reduce recoil. As I get older, that's becoming more and more important. I bought Black Cloud and Remington Hypersonic 3.5" shells to test. I'm very happy with my Versamax and it does reduce recoil a g

Still A Great Gun

It's been 3 years now and over 3,000 rounds of all sorts of loads. Still wonderful!!!! A big part of this is because I clean my gun regularly and completely break it down. I just replaced the Action spring and the link because of normal wear... Great gun

Great gun and fires all 12G shells

I bought this gun months ago and have used it for various migratory birds and I LOVE IT!!! It shoots everything from my lightest target loads to my heaviest 3 1/2" loads. The gun came with various chokes, a hard case, and different front sights. I re

A Great Shotgun

I bought a Versamax with a 28 inch barrel from Cabelas. Got one of the last two they had. I have shot Benellis in the past, Super Black Eagle and Super Black Eagle II. For whatever reason, I didn't shoot either well and they both kicked like mules. I coul

The best

This is the best 3.5 inch gun in the world, light recoil, great price, I recommend Jeff Giertz buys one.

great gun

i just bought this gun for waterfowl season.i couldnt wait to shoot it.i opend it up went to clean it and i looked down the barrel aferwards and i saw that it was still gummed up by the gas vents. put a bore light on it and there was pits in the metal.im

Versa max

I have 300to400 rounds thru my new gun and no problems at all. Have shot 7/8 OZ. trap loads to 2 1/4 OZ. turkey loads.No malfunctions. The least recoil of any 12 Ga. I have ever shot. Easy to disassemble for cleaning. After 100 Win. Xpert promo loads the

Great purchase

The remington versa max is awesome, pulls up great and does not have hardly any recoil, I use it to do alot of skeet shooting and love it, I also turkey hunt, my friends and brother tried it out the first time I used it and they thought it was a great gun

BEST EVER

Remington has hit one out of the park with the new Versa Max Waterfowl. This shotgun is one smooth operator and has fired every round from the light 7/8 oz to the heavy 3.5" magnums without any problems. There is virtually no muzzle jump and this gun

Their claim about quality/reliability

Remington quality has gone down there are better guns out there for the price. They say they have tested it like no other shotgun in thier adds, well how did the recall on the trigger assembly get by them. Remington has burned me more than once and it rea

nice gun, bought the waterfowl pro version for $100 more last year and the gun has shot around 125, 3.5 shells without failure.

I've had this shotgun for years now and have put many cases of ammo through it during that time. I lost a bolt handle which Remington replaced free of charge and snapped the arm on the back of the bolt which Remington also replaced for free. Can't say eno
