The Remington 1894 & 1900 model SxSs should also be considered American classics. Because Remington made a lot of mass produced pumps and auto loaders, their fine quality doubles have been overlooked by many. The 1894 & 1900 exhibited fine workmanship and fleet design.

From a European perspective, of course, the LC Smith is the preeminent American classic because of its sidelock mechanism. On the other side of the pond sidelocks are considered to be in an entirely different and superior class from boxlocks.
