I wonder if Cam has any info on these buttplates? Its amazing the damage one can see on a barrel nut bushing, as well as the jacket.

1913Model8

Hi there, I understand what you are saying. The only time I have had resistance is the old spring I had was broken (didn't know it at the time) on one end and it would get under the washer and put resistance on threading the barrel nut cap on. For the sound not being there that's a new one to me. On...

I appreciate it he was a good man and a dear friend. I also have a 1913 model 8 in 30rem that’s been in my family since new. He was the one who found and reloaded some 30 rem brass for my family gun Keep an eye out for Grafs brass, a few years ago I found new brass for the .30 at a local gun shop a...

Hey guys, gals, I officially received my issue of the magazine, 3rd quarter RSA Journal. The Ad looks really great in the issue. Couldn't be happier with it. I hope that it will reach out to many of the people that do no know about this site of Cams as well as the tool no being made.

Welcome to the forum! I have no doubt that Police81, Roger or one of the other member that are actively on here will be able to give you more information on this. It wonderful that you will be able to be the next caretaker of that cool piece of history. Sorry for your loss.

Thanks for all of the helpful replies. I had no idea that RCBS had this unconditional guarantee, kind of like Leupold does.

Dan

That's actually really great to know! Thanks.

Update here. I ended up buying a new spring from the gunsmith on ebay. As suspected the original spring was cut or broken by 1.5" I can say the new springs are well made and have nice finished ends to them. Highly recommend replacing your worn out springs with these well made new ones. Also aga...

He also can repair damaged bolt carriers where the extractor grooves have broken through. Name on Ebay is afsllc . Hope this can help someone dow...

I would check the website in the next few weeks. I was impressed by the descriptions given on the guns from the last auction. Most auction houses descriptions are lackluster, not the case with Wards. I'd advise against trying to contact Rem8&81 through the forum considering he hasn't signed on ...

Contact Corey Creamer for a model 8 in 35 caliber. I have given Corey several model 8’s on consignment to sell them for me. Corey is a member of the Forum and can be contacted.

Kindest Regards and good luck in your search.

Hi guys, I have a relative looking to buy a Model 8 in .35 Remington. He is looking for something in nice condition with possible minor scratches etc. Should be a numbers matching rifle, and pretty darn original. Let me know what you have to offer, thanks!

1913Model8

This is fantastic!

1913Model8

I just used mine today to disassemble my 1924 Model 8. Some parts were frozen and took some convincing but, with a little Kroil and heat plus some perseverance the old girl came apart with NO damage to any parts. Well designed tool and a piece of art. I couldn't be happier! That is fantastic to hea...

Howdy John. No boredom here, i welcome any and all content Model 8 related. The auction pictures didn't do that one justice. You REALLY scored on a super early first year gun! I'm happy that you were able to secure it as the high bidder at auction and that it surpassed expectations. Now I NEED to f...

I did see that residue of varnish on sides of butt plate and figured possibly they varnished it with butt plate in place ??? Any thoughts or definitely an added coat. It certainly wasn’t sanded !! What does everyone think should do ?? Take butt plate off and clean off the varnish or just leave it ?...

What a score there John wow! Jealous and happy for you is all I can say! What a beautiful example of a Model 8. I'm glad you have that Model 8 service tool to help take a peek inside :D Looks like maybe someone at some time recoated the finish dude to seeing a little varnish on top of the butt plate...

Dang I backed out of the initial offering because of the US/kanada exchange rate but now my mouth is watering again :P Are you still willing to ship north of 49 TJ ? It would have to go USPS or I'd have to back off again Well of course we can do that. Do you need a quote on shipping? If so I sugges...

81police, Thank you so much for this fantastic review. We are taking great pride in making these tools. They are not a 1 hour job either, these are up to 8 hours a piece for everything depending on what you order. Labor of love and passion for these are what keeps the oil burning. We want everyone t...

As long as I am looking at this and thinking about it again here are more links I used a reference for refinishing stocks.

What was the original finish on the 1936 Model 81 stocks? I just bought one in 35 Remington and the finish on the stocks is a mess. Dents, scratches and scrapes but the bluing is excellent. Have any of you refinished stocks for the Model 81? How did you do it? The stocks back then might have been d...

1913Model8

Absolutely some of those will come out with steam and some elbow grease. Check out my website here of the pictures I took when I refinished my Model 8 a few years ago now. I followed the Larry Potterfield way of doing a sanded in finish and I could not be happier with the process. I was able to remo...

P.S.: Unlike the FN 1900 barrel tool which is high end the "Ramirez Spanner Wrench" copy of the original Remington tool looks very basic and easy to make (in the age of CNC). Why is it so difficult to get 20-30 wrenches made? Can't remember if I got a hold of you now but the tools are up ...

Is there any chance of the owner taking that barrel assembly apart? I would be interested to get good images and maybe some measurements of the barrel cap teeth.

All gussied up. Burnt the midnight oil finishing my thorough cleaning. 81Police- It certainly didn't give any trouble and upon full tear down, cleanup was relatively easy.

Congrats on your work and tool, looks very well made. Will have to contemplate possible purchase.
