Reminton auto loader

[mpaurus]

I inherited a Remington auto loader with the browning patents 1900 1901 1902 and 1903. Serial number is 100478. top of barrel says manufactured by the Remington arms co. Can anyone help me find the manufacture year? I am thinking 1910 from my research but am not sure.

Late 1910 sounds right. The serial number chronology I have shows serial numbers for 1910 to be 82043 to 101714. The next year, Marcellus Hartley Dodge merged his arms and ammunition companies as Remington Arms-Union Metallic Cartridge Co. In the 1911-12 Rem-UMC catalog they began calling the gun the Model No. 11.

Mpaurus,

Is the top tang stamped Remington and the bottom tang marked Remington UMC in a circle?

Thanks, Will
