Re: First Remington--12CS -- Trying to understand manufactur
The "CS" was part of the model #. It is a Model 12-CS.

Re: First Remington--12CS -- Trying to understand manufactur
21,067 would mean 1910. CS would stand for assembly in April 1925. Either there is another number in the serial # or the barrel has been replaced if the CS is the barrel date code.

Re: New to the Fourm with a Question
The models 12 & 121 sound pretty nice as well. Some may think the M/121 is junk, but nobody has made a better 22 pump. Yup, I said nobody.

Re: New to the Fourm with a Question
[quote="remington600"]I have to know, and I'm sure others are wondering. Why do you even get on this Remington Society website? If Remington's are so crappy and all?[/quote]
I have to wonder as well.

Re: Remington 12 question
Rem picked the parts out of bins that were not sorted. I don't know for sure, but I think the barrel code is the best indication of mfg date. Your situation is not unusual.

I agree. It looks like a factory configuration & I doubt very strongly that they would have used maple.

Re: An unusual Improved Model 6
Your rifle was made in Jan 1931 (date code BZ) so use in 1920 is at least doubtful. The Imp M/6 was made from 1929-1933. The extra letters are proof/inspector marks. The stock and forearm configuration look to be factory, but no options other than the standard American Walnut were listed by Rem. It ...

Re: Dating 513T
Our research showed that serial #s started with 1000 and were stamped on the bottom of the barrel ahead of the forend. Since yours is obviously very early production the 57 could be a serial #. Rem did not always do what they said in their written materials.

Re: Early model 700ADL in 22-250 compare with John Lacy info
I've seen the old assembly process in Ilion first hand a few years back. As you said, parts for the rifles were put in wooden bins and retrieved as needed. The shotguns were made downstairs using robots and much less people involved. It was like going from gun-making 100 years ago to modern manufact...

Re: Grandfarthers Model 12
Values aren't usually given here. There's just too many variables. Are the sights original? Any cracks in the wood? How's the bore? I'm only listing the questions; not looking for answers. In any case the value won't make a significant bump in your net worth. The M/12s are great rifles. Certainly on...

Re: Grandfarthers Model 12
The MODEL 12 stamp was phased in. Some rifles as late as 1917 did not have the stamp.
