Preview tile image

When you hover over the link to this page, the image it shows on the preview tile that pops up is of a synthetic stock, bolt-action rifle, not the image on this page, which it should show. I found a similar problem on the article on the Ruger Mk.III, IIRC. AnnaGoFast (talk) 23:14, 4 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I see that the Remington 11-48 is listed everywhere it is mentioned as long recoil, I own one and it is physically impossible for the barrel to recoil more than about an inch which is clearly not longer than 2 3/4 inch shells it seems to me that this would make the gun short recoil, I've handled my uncles auto-5 as well which is the claimed source of the "long-recoil" action and they have clearly different actions as it relates to the recoiling the auto-5 barrel has a massively longer travel than that of the 11-48, can I get a source as to the long recoil claim? I cant find one.
