In my 1942 Remington catalogues, they offer the Cutts fitted to Sportsman, Model 11 and Model 31 in 12-, 16-, or 20-gauge with plain, matted rib or ventilated rib barrels. In the 1947 catalogue it is only offered on plain barrels.
Remington also offers the Poly-Choke on these guns but only with plain barrels. "The Remington "Sportsman," Model 11 and New Improved Model 31 shotguns in 12, 16 and 20 gauges are now available with the new Aero-dyne Super Poly Choke built in at the Remington factory. The Poly Choke is made to specifications of the Poly Choke Company but is integral (made in one piece) with the barrel and cannot possibly come loose. This device gives varying degrees of choke in one gun. It is instantly adjustable from true cylinder to full choke by a mere twist of the sleve. The barrel is plain, without rib, and is 28" long including the Poly Choke. Not furnished in any other length or with solid or ventilated rib."
By the October 1950 catalogue the Cutts is offered fitted to vent rib Sportsman 48 and Model 870 shotguns and the Poly choke is offered fitted to Model 870, Model 11-48 and Sportsman 48 with plain barrels only. No more mention of being made integral with the barrels.
