Each arsenal repair, each little ding in the wood stocks, is part of a story, and I find that fascinating. The same can be said of my military surplus rifles: somewhere, sometime, someone trusted his life - and possibly his nation's survival - on these rifles. it may not be worth a great deal in monetary value, but to me, it is valuable as a piece of Remington history, and thus of firearms history. Such as my Remington 878 Automaster, which I covered in a previous post. Now, do not get me wrong, I enjoy shooting, and therefor I put a premium on reliability and accuracy, but I also very much am interested in the history of guns as well, and I love firearms that are more than just your run-of-the-mill, everyone-has-one models.
As a gun collector, I am constantly on the lookout for interesting, unusual, and uncommon pieces.
