Re: Remington "lightweight" Hammerless SxS's?

Here are a couple pics of my 1910 KED "lightweight" (left or up) and 1902 K (right or down). Hopefully the size difference can be seen.

Re: Model 1900 extractor

Sounds like you have a broken spring or sear in the forearm ejector. Should be a simple fix but most gun smiths won't know how to repair it. If you like you could send it to me for a look see and possible repair.

As for Remington barrel stampings -- they were not consistent for most of the S/S ...

Re: Remington NMA case measures

Dixie Gun Works in Union City Tennessee sells presentation cases as well as the other items you might want to include with your NMA. A bit pricey and I don't know if they ship to Europe.

Re: 20 Gauge Model 1894?

Sadly I've not seen mention of any extant 20 GA doubles except as noted on page 253 of Semmer's book. In this case it's a 1900 pictured. As Remington would make guns to order there may be more out there.

Re: Remington "lightweight" Hammerless SxS's?

In terms of 1900s, I have a 1902 K in almost new condition and a 1910 KED. The difference between the two (other than options) is that the that the 1910 is about 1/8" narrower across the water table (1 3/8 vs.1 1/2+). Bolster width for the 1902 measures about 2.375" and 2 25" for the 1910 ...

Re: 1100 - which model is this?

Choke (e.g., skeet, full etc) of both your barrels should be stamped on the side of each barrel or be equipped with RemChoke. Also chamber length (2 3/4, 3") should be stamped on the side.

Re: 1894 10 gauge shot count?

Researcher - are there any extant hang tags for the '89s? I assume the patterning specs would be the same as the '94s.

Re: new 1889

I too ran out of 7625 a while back. using CB data for 1oz loads I've loaded AA hulls as follows: wad - CB 4100. primer - W209. power - 18.5 gr. International. pressure - 6700. velocity - 1190.

Also as a fallback I've loaded AAs using black powder -- fun to shoot but not so much cleanup fun. I ...

Here's the pics. Looks like the mortice used to hold metal plate is missing. Note: No metal protrudes out the bottom of the wood.

Re: Searching for Remington Gamemaster 760 BDL 5 Diamond Forend for 270

The 270 and 30-06 share the same brass - the 270 is a necked down version of the 30-06. I don't see why the fore end should differ.

Re: 1894 Forend Help

I do see a missing part. It's a threaded flat steel plate that slips into the wood at the rear. It's there to attach the rear of the iron. Shouldn't be hard to fabricate if you cannot find one. I can send a pix if needed.

Re: 1894 Forend Help

What you have is a model 1900 - not an 1894. The confusion arrises because the same patent dates are stamped on the forearm iron for both models. The serial numbers for 1900s begins with a 3 (3xxxxx) while the 1894 start with 1 (1xxxxx). Your 1900 was made in the last year of production - 1910. The ...

Re: Rifle identification

It's been awhile since I've reworked one but my best guess is that it's a converted military Mauser. Several model were made ('93, '98, '09 Argentine etc) and many were made for various countries.

Remove the front scope mount and check for some sort of crest stamped on the breach. That should ...
