I had a Remington M11. It was a direct copy of the A5. Maybe it wasn't done very well, but it was a heavy, clumsy, clanky, and ugly thing that did not point well at all and jammed whenever the temperature was below 40 degrees or within 2 ft of a single grain of sand. It had all the ergonomics of a broken pick ax so far as I was concerned.

While I am not a big 1100 fan, I can't think of a single thing that the Remington 1100 would not excel relative to the Winchester.
