Beware of scammers.

Tink!

We seem to have a problem here since the 722 was discontinued in 1962 and wasn't made in 6mm, the 721 was discontinued about the same time, and it wasn't chambered in 6mm. I have a 1956 Model 722 in .222 and a 1950 721 in .300 H&H, neither have had any safety problem. I shot a lot of Prairie ...

Hey!

The sight elevator I pulled for you is about 99%, probably a lot "gooder" than the rifle.

Take care and stay warm!

Scott!
You ought to give Tom a call, there is only one Thomas Hemphill in Fosston and he's curious who "Bud" might be???

Thanks for the caliber, we will record it.

Scott!

All my stuff is first class and as I state on my auctions on Gunbroker, "I don't sell crap".
It does indeed have the original milled elevator. the 701 sight used on the Model 14
is different than the one used on the Model 141..........a lot different. They did use the Model 14 variation on ...

Yeah!

I'm not much into taking pictures and too damn old to run up/down stairs to do it.
Sorry about that but I can sell you one if you want, mine are about 90%+ condition, clean, and correct. For the rear sight $95 including shipping which is in a small Priority mail box otherwise the USPS will ...

Roger that!

Lets get the numbers correct!

The Wheel Sight number is 117-1/2
The Long Leaf Rear Sight is 701-1/2

Yours is a late production rifle, those were some of the best 14's.

Don't be misled by some of the ads on Ebay or Gunbroker, they don't know a real
701-1/2 sight from their ass. The ...

Hey!

Serial would have been helpful but if your rifle was made in 1931 it would have had the 701-1/2 Long leaf rear sight and a high front. Yes, the wheel sight was an option for a rear sight until Model 14 production ceased. Pedersen designed the Wheel Sight to fit in the necessary slot on the ...

Thanks for the nice comments Eddie, I'll do my best to inform!

Based on the serial of your rifle, it would have had the magazine plug with the brush guard milled into it. Only the VERY early rifles were supplied without the brush guard BUT all of the Model 14-1/2's were supplied with a magazine ...

Sorry but I just can't help myself and need to comment on late serial Model 141's.

141's have the reverse problem exhibited by the Model 14, while early Model 14's might be desirable to collectors they totally lack for function. It took Remington about a year to realize how poorly these rifles ...

The highest serial we currently have was made in August of 1950, 79864.

Just a thought!

Be sure the Model 25 works properly..............like loads, feeds, fires, and ejects properly. If it doesn't do all of those things then you will essentially have a wall hanger. Finding anyone who can work on these is one thing but finding the proper/needed parts is another story ...

79764 was the last when Tom last printed the data base out but he might have something later now. Best I can do until I talk with Tommy!

Saw that, looked right to me, and for a collector of such things you would pay dearly.
These rifles were overshadowed by the 52 Winchester but for position shooting they were every bit as good if not better. When the 40X came out it was almost strictly for prone shooting but had a better trigger but ...

Joe!

I really don't have a clue but what I can tell you is that for years I've been shooting a .257 Ackley Improved, it has NEVER been a commercial cartridge, and RCBS made dies for it back in the 70's. Was just chatting with a friend about this and he's one smart "gun guy" who says the 25-06 goes ...

I tried to make a "post" on this earlier but apparently didn't hit the "submit" button and good thing because all I saw was the 388,000 serial which sends up all sorts of red flags but the other dude who replied was smarter than I and recognized it was serial 3,880,000 which makes a big difference ...
