Re: "Factory letter" for Remington rifles
Does Remington offer "factory letters" (ala Smith and Wesson) that include specifics of when and to whom a particular rifle was shipped to? What age? Old Remington records were destroyed in a fire. It is an FBI model Remington 81. Probably in the very late 30's or early 40's. https://www....
