I thought the Model 25 came only in .25-20 and .32-20. https://www.remarms.com/sites/default/f ... 201923.pdf

Going to attempt a weld repair. Dimensions would be very helpful. I found this picture of an unbroken extractor. Anyone have an unbroken extractor they can measure? What is the measurement from the lug to the claw?

TIG weld repair is an option, provided you can find a real gunsmith, not just a parts changer.

The the "hook" on my rifle's extractor is broken. You can see in the pictures below the tip is broken and how there is nothing to engage the rim of the .45-70 cartridge. There is also a picture of what it is supposed to look like. Does anyone have an extra extractor? Has anyone had any luc...

Here is mine. The bore is pristine. Navy number 2743, inspected by Lieutenant W.W. Kimball. Part of the second order of rifles ordered by the Navy in June of 1889. No idea of where it's been or what it's done, but what an astounding bit of US military history. While the US Army was running around th...

You have a fine rifle. One lives by the back door here loaded with CCI CB shorts to quietly dispatch pests around the garden and chicken coop.

Thanks for the information and the link to the owner's manual. The gun is working and shoots fine. However, with the action out of the stock it is pretty evident that the sear case is cross threaded. I annoys me greatly that it is so, but I am torn between leave well enough alone and making it right...

I found a 550-1 at a yard sale and the sear case on it looks also to be cross threaded all to hell. I am afraid to disturb it. Has anyone had any luck repairing such damage? How did you do it or who did you send it to? I'd like to get it back into good shooting condition.

That is sad news. I have been searching for a copy of his book, to no avail.

Then I shall take exceedingly good care of mine. It is a .32-20 in nice shape and shoots fine. If you won't work on one, you can bet I won't be.

Jim, do you include the Model 25 in with the 14 series for repairs?

Thanks, Emil

I have had really good results with CCI's quiet .22LR ammo. Works great on squirrels. A bit lower velocity that standard, but certainly works great in both my Remington rifles, a Model 12C and a Model 550-1.

I have a Model 25 in .32-20, serial 6228, and barrel date code EP (October 1923.) Nothing special, just a well cared for survivor with a good bore that shoots nicely well. No tang sights, but it has the bumps and bruises you'd expect on a 93 year old rifle that has spent time afield.
