something old, and cool... - 04/14/19 05:05 PM
Katies mom died 15+ years ago, and she got her moms shotgun...
she doesnt really shoot, cuz shes kinda a baby, so she never brought it home till today....
cleaned it up and oiled it and it functions excellent, for a nearly 100 year old shotgun....
Remington The Sportsman semi auto 20 gauge, made in 1930/31, 30 inch barrel (i think havent measured it but its long), full choke....
does have some dings in the stock, the bluing is worn off in places, but i think it will be a fine shooter....
(from what i read, Remington built these for Browning back then, because FN Herstal was controlled by Nazi Germany, there are also "Browning Patents" marked on the barrel...)
definitely a cool old gun, and piece of firearms history....
sorry the pictures are so dark, the fvckin flash on my phone broke, so i have to buy another phone, ive had it for 3 months.....
