I'll call tomorrow

I'm within easy driving distance of Duncan. I would prefer a USPS Money Order. Let me know what you want to do.

Hardrada55

The bore of the barrel has good rifling but shows signs of having been shot with corrosive ammo. I do not know to what extent the bore would "clean up". The gun stock and buttplate are as they were when I purchased it, so I can neither confirm or deny whether the stock and buttplate are or...

Bump with price reduction to $1000 for 1911 Remington Model 8 in .25 Remington with nice peep sight, rare butt plate, extra holes in wood from sling(?).

Hardrada55

I have a C grade rifle with a flat bottom pistol grip stock like this.

Hardrada55

That is an outstanding "C" grade. I wouldn't down play the quality of the wood at all, I think it's beautiful.

Hardrada55

In the interest of completeness and full disclosure, here are pix of the holes.

Found you one. https://www.gunboards.com/threads/wts-r ... n.1259426/

Hardrada55

What condition is your Model 81 in? Is it already drilled for a scope mount? If it is a nice gun and not already drilled and tapped for a scope mount, I would look around for another Model 81 in your caliber which either already has a scope mount or is already drilled and tapped for a scope mount. O...

Oliver, Welcome to the forum! I do not think that a regular magazine or a Krieger conversion type magazine will work on a POE modified Remington Autoloading rifle. I have seen POE magazines for sale maybe once or twice in the past 28 years.

Hardrada55

Got mine! Thank you, it looks absolutely perfect.

Hardrada55

I paid using the email address.

Hardrada55

If your gun is in the 26000 range it is 1910-1911.

Hardrada55

That is such a wonderful setup. I think this is the second cased Remington Autoloader I've ever seen. This is a magnificent example.

Hardrada55

I want one 2XL "tall" for $33.

Hardrada55

Let me know....I want a 2X tall...

Hardrada55

Which issue? One of the old paperbacks or the hardback version?

Hardrada55

I vote for No. 1 and/or No. 3, with No. 3 a slight favorite. Hats are way cool. I have one of the hats Packmule made years ago now.

Hardrada55

I think that's very interesting. Thank you for sharing.

Hardrada55

Very good idea! Sounds like the .35 will make a good shooter.

Hardrada55

I have a similar one and it's my favorite.

Hardrada55

Your rifle shipped from Remington in 1915. The "N" and "circle K" are called "assemblers and fitters markings".

Hardrada55

I really enjoyed the pictures of the old ammo boxes, especially the .30 Remington Hi-Speed 110 grain!

Hardrada55

I don't know if the trigger guard serial matches, but the barrel matches the receiver. The only thing bad about this gun is that someone drilled holes in the bottom of the forearm and stock to mount now long gone sling swivels.

SOLD! SOLD! SOLD! Price reduction! I'm getting old and need to start winnowing some of my collection. Was $1200 now $1000. Heads up forum members! I would like to sell my 1911 vintage Remington model 8 autoloading rifle chambered in .25 Remington for $1000 plus actual shipping costs. It has a nice p...

Thank you! I imagine it’s not due to the obsolete ammo. I assume you’re a reloader?

Yes, I reload, but in this case.... I happen to have several boxes of ammo ready for when I do acquire a nice one.

Hardrada55

That's a pretty one. A .32 is the one I don't have...yet.

Hardrada55

That's very nice...

Hardrada55

First thing you need to do is find a source of brass cartridge cases for .30 Remington. The major ammo companies stopped selling loaded .30 Remington cartridges in 1997. Graf's used to sell brass for about a buck apiece, but I think they're out of stock. Some other companies like Midway or Old Weste...

What's your seller name on GB?

Those tangs are awful proud!

Removable magazine.

Alleged to have belonged to Texas Ranger W. L. Barler.

Hardrada55

I peaked, and that's a good looking rifle!

Hardrada55

This is what I would call a "round knob" Model 8. It's a type of rounded shallow pistol grip style stock.

Thanks, A Remington 8 and 81 collector from New Jersey had a box like that back in 2011.

SOLD PENDING FUNDS I have a Standard Arms Model G rifle in .30 Remington which is substantially complete (as far as I can tell) but is in non-operating condition. I had intended to fix it myself but never got around to it. The ladder on the rear sight is missing. The gas valve seems to be a little ...

Hey from Lawton. Awesome looking rifle...

Hardrada55

Now you gotta' tell us what he paid for 'em so we can turn green.

Hardrada55

Definitely a Wow! Where do these things come from! I guess I really know the answer....they've been sitting in someone else's collection for years and years. But, what a neat thing to have.

I never realized that .32 Remington was available at one time with a 110 grain "Hi-Speed" "Mushroom" pointed bullet.

I really like this forum. I check it almost every day.

Posting for a family member. Looking for a nice original functioning Model 8 or 81 in .35 Remington. Want a nice shooter.

Hardrada55

MinnesotaDan, Did you ever sell your Model 8 for $800 range?

Hardrada55

I know I have struggled several times with the refinish vs leave original conundrum. In the final analysis, I would do what makes the gun most enjoyable to you. It's not like you would be refinishing some super rare variation or a one of a kind gun or one that is historically significant that would ...
