How much is a turn of the century Remington Arms double barrel shotgun in good shape worth?
Q. Also, how does one get surface rust off the barrel? Would 00 steel wool do it? Both barrels have cocking levers and a lever that you push to the right. The shells pop up when you open it up after firing. I believe it is a 10 gauge. The butt plate has an ornate R over A on it for Remington Arms. It there a website for dating these shotguns?

A. Whatever you do, don't try to fire that thing! Some older guns were made with damascus steel barrels. Firing modern smokless ammunition through the gun could result in disaster.

A. Or.. Remington Year of Manufacture Codes maybe found on the barrel of your Remington rifle [or shotgun] on the left side, just forward of the receiver; the first letter of the Code is the month of manufacture, followed by one or two letters which are the year of manufacture. For shotguns with removeable barrels, the code will be valid for the manufacture of the barrel; maybe for the receiver, as barrels do get switched around. According to the "Blue Book of Gun Values", the coding continues as follows: Month Codes: [first letter] B - L - A - C - K - P - O - W - D a E -- R -- X 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 - 7 - 8 - 9 - 10 - 11 - 12 (second (and third*) letters) Year_Code Year___Code 1930___ Y 1970___ T 1931___ Z 1971___ U 1932___ A… [cont.]

How does the hinged floor plate magazine work on the Remington 700?
Q. Can anyone tell me how the hinged floor plate magazine works on some of the Remington model 700's? Since it is an upgrade to the detachable magazine, I'm assuming its all one piece? If anyone has any pictures of this gun with this type of magazine that would be appreciated as well.
Asked by Tim B - Fri Apr 18 08:30:55 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. Inside the trigger guard (towards the front) is a button that, if pressed, will release the "trap door" floorplate. It actually opens sort of violently since it is under spring pressure. Anyway, that floorplate has a spring attached to it (in the form of a folded piece of flat springy metal) that is connected to the follower. In function, it works exactly like a detachable magazine, except that it is not detachable, and that it can be unloaded from the bottom. I am partial to floorplates because they are flat and smooth, and therefore less cumbersome. Of course, they have a much more limited capactiy. My Remington 700 CDL can only hold four 7mm Rem Mag, and that includes one in the chamber. Enough to hunt with, of course, but if you're… [cont.]

How well does the Remington Wet 2 Straight straightener work?
Q. I'm getting my hair cut in a few weeks, and I'll want to straighten my hair every day with the new haircut (my hair is naturally a little wavy.) Does the Remington Wet 2 Straight straightener work well? Can you actually use it when your hair is wet?
Asked by Yes - Fri Jul 4 13:03:45 2008 - - 6 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Heck yes it works! :D. My cousin has the same straightener and I tried hers out. Not only does it save you time (instead of having to blow dry AND straighten it), it even made my layers more visible! Well, if you're talking about just-came-out-of-the-show er wet, that's not really good, but if it's a little damp, then it's fine. I tried straightening it when I came out of the shower but it took longer. It even made my hair thinner. Have fun!

What should I look for when buying a used Remington 700 from a pawn shop?
Q. A pawn shop near my house is selling a used Remington 700 30-06. I am fairly new to guns and would like to own a 30-06. The owner is asking for $350 for the used Remington. It is blue with a wood stock. The stock is a little worn, but no cracks. What else should I pay close attention to? Thank you.

A. $350 sounds kinda high for a used one. What sub-model of the 700 is it? Does it come with a good scope already on it? You really cant go wrong with a Remington 700 if its in good condition. I own 2. One in .270 and one in 30-06. Both are ADL with synthetic stocks. I bought the .270 2 years ago and the 30-06 this year. Both were under $330 each. Best bang for the buck and very accurate. Do some checking around before you commit to this used one. You can even go to gunbroker dot com and find a new one and have it shipped to a gun dealer near you. (btw-gunbroker is kinda high)There are real deals out there, you just have to look. Some Walmarts still sell them too, even though i HATE walmart.

What kind of ammo to use in a Remington 870 Express Magnum Shotgun?
Q. I got a remington 870 express magnum shotgun with the shorter barrel on it for deer hunting. How do I determine if it is rifled or not? Are they usually rifled. I opened chamber and looked down barrel and it looks pretty smooth but I am not sure. Tell me if I am correct. If gun is rifled then you want sabot slugs. If gun is smooth bore than you want rifled slugs. thanks for helping me out folks.
Asked by xingfiter - Thu Nov 13 17:47:36 2008 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. If the inside of the barrel appears to be smooth, then you probably have a smooth bore barrel. Do a websearch on the different types of slugs and it should tell you if they are rifles slugs or not. You WILL want to shoot rifled slugs out of your gun...since it does not have rifling. The rifled slugs are made of lead and have a twist pattern to the outside edges of the slug itself...so, as it travels down the smooth inside of the barrel, the slug imparts a spin on itself. I suggest scoping-out the Remington, Winchester and Federal ammunition websites for more information.

A. You aren't going to get one for $200, maybe $285 but it wouldn't matter what the cost is, those are a bad rifle to put any money into. Remington made a bad choice by producing and marketing those as a box store rifle, because that is exactly what they got, a rifle that you use and then throw away. The bolt on those needs more poundage to operate than my compound bow and if anything ever happens they are not repairable, the barrel and action are pressed into that god-awful stock and there are better scopes on BB guns. If you spend $300 + you can at least get a Savage/scope combo at WalMart, or a Vanguard/Howa. The new Marlin XL-7 is a quantum leap over the 770, even the Mossberg ATR makes the 770 look like a modern day Edsel. Check past… [cont.]

Asked by School Addict - Sun Aug 30 09:24:55 2009 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments

A. I think a lot of people are missing the words Express and Combo. I just google searched this, and new they are about $450. Some people are talking about the Remington 870, which is more expensive than the 870 Express. Some others notice the Express, but are missing that it is the combo. I don't know what it would be used, but some people aren't considering everything before giving you an estimate. As far as the paperwork is concerned, it depends on the state you are in. In MA, you do have paperwork, but MA's rules suck compared to most states.

Asked by Jeff w - Mon Mar 29 21:55:52 2010 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments

A. All my Remington 700's have rear sights attached with screws. Then again most of them are not of the current crop with the matt black finishes rather they are blued. Some of the more recent ones appear to have some type of thread locker applied to the screws so use a proper fitting screw driver with sharp edges not one that's worn else you'll cam out of the screw head cross slot. If it is in a dovetail it will need to be drifted out. Use a flat tipped punch and drift from left to right.
