By 1996, spurred by sales of the basic "Express" models, which were added as a lower-cost alternative to the original Wingmaster line, sales topped seven million guns. They reached 2 million guns by 1973 (ten times the number of Model 31 shotguns it replaced). It was an adaptation of the Remington 11–48 autoloader, itself an adaptation of the John Browning-designed Remington 11. Remington sought to correct that in 1949 by introducing a modern, streamlined, rugged, reliable, and relatively inexpensive shotgun – the 870. The Model 31 was well liked, but struggled for sales in the shadow of the Winchester Model 12. John Browning designed the Remington Model 17 (which was later adapted by Ithaca into the Ithaca 37), which served as the basis for the Remington 31. John Pedersen designed the fragile Remington Model 10 (and later the improved Remington Model 29).
