I need to update my inventory list to 3 Model 81s and 1 Model 8.

Cam, I have read conflicting reports on the caliber of Hamer's rifle used in the shooting of B&C, some say .25 and others say .35. Which is it?

Good information Cam.

Welcome ROBOPUMP, very nice collection. Do you hunt with your 8's/81's or just collect?

Located.

Wenig in Lincoln Mo. has stocks for the Model 8. The web address is http://www.wenig.com and phone is 660-547-3334. I priced a replacement set of walnut for an 8 and the price quote was $150.00.

I need a stock screw for a Model 8 straight grip if anyone has a spare or where to locate one at.

Thanks,
Terry

The address above is the email, the web site is http://www.wenig.com

There is a company in Lincoln Mo. that makes replacement stocks for the model 8. I have never bought from them, this is just an FYI. The web site is gunstock@wenig.com and the phone number is 660-547-3334 if anyone is interested.

2- 81's
1-8

My sister-in-law works for United as a flight attendant. Her regular route was the Boston to San Francisco flight that crashed into the World Trade Center. She was off work that day and was not on the flight...

Howdy!

Hope you can hang out your shingle, would make a lot of us happy. After you told him about the Krieger he got more excited than my Jack Russell Terrier running around.

He foams at the mouth already...no telling what he will do when he gets it. Pete and I have talked and I think it would be safer if he sent it to me first.

If anyone couldn't tell by Jim81's reply he is very happy with his new carbine that Pete finished.

They are marked 30, 32 on the clips, it is possible that they may be for a different model rifle.

That's what I thought it should do, however the clips for the .30 will not go into the groove.

Thanks

I have a couple of brass stripper clips that fit the .30 Rem. 81 that I have. Do the protrusions on the clips go into the receiver on stay on top? The ones that I have will not insert into the receiver. The clips are marked 30 Remington.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome! You will find this forum very useful.

Besides the two 81's I have a Model 11 in 12 gauge and two 41 Target Master rifles in .22 rimfire.

Welcome!

Tough men doing a tough job when there were no car radios to call for help...they did it by themselves mostly.

Welcome, former LE myself. Good to have you aboard!

I am looking for a Redfield or Williams rear site that installs on the back of the receiver for one of my 81s. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Terry

Pictures will be forthcoming...just waiting on the 81 in .300 cal. to arrive!

Hello, my name is Terry. I am new to this forum but have a great fondness for old firearms, especially guns used by outlaws and lawmen. I have always wanted an 8/81 and just recently purchased an 81 in .30 Remington. What a hoot to shoot! Liked it so well that I have another coming in .300 Savage. F...
