Take it to a trusted ‘smith’ for the work. A good smithie will check the action as well as the bore and primary firing mechanism.

A few dollars will pay dividends!

I agree.

I just wanted to clean it up good prior to dropping it off. It’s been stored in a hard-side carrying case for years. It was put away oiled and clean, but my dad had never taken it out of the case for probably 20 years!

Beautiful gun. Action works smoothly.

Thanks for the advice.

And a good gunsmith will also clean it for around fifty bucks and sit down and show you how to strip and reassemble it.

Also, there are usually some older gentlemen hanging around just about any gun shop or range who could strip and reassemble a Remington model 11 blindfolded.
