MODEL 1808 CONTRACT MUSKET/ MADE BY BARTLETT/ ORIGINAL AND RARE!
PICTURE LINK (30 PICS):
For sale is a Model 1808 Contract Musket made by Bartlett in the original, unaltered flintlock configuration. This is not a typical cut down musket. It has a period correct alteration to musketoon, including a turned down barrel and new bayonet lug on the bottom of the barrel. Vermont Militia regulations of 1820 specified each Cavalry Trooper was required to have a sword and a brace of pistols. No mention was made of carbines, in addition, the lack of a carrying ring suggests that this is most likely an Artillery Militaia musketoon. This musket is one of around 1,700 manufactured under a 2,500 gun contract by Asher and Pliny Bartlett of Springfield, Massachusetts, based on the Springfield "Model 1795" Charleville pattern muskets. They are often referred to by collectors as Model 1808s. These muskets are very rare. It is very similar to the Springfield muskets and has an eagle and shield (mostly worn off) over "BARTLETT" at the center of the lock and "1811" at the tail. Rock Island Auction (RIA) has only ever had 3 of these! Those guys get the rarest of the rare. This is a Connecticut state musket, as you can tell from the Connecticut state marking on the breech end of the barrel top. The lock works excellent. All springs are strong. An amazing piece of history! ANTIQUE/ NOFFL NEEDED (UNLESS REQUIRED IN YOUR STATE). I WILL REQUIRE A COPY OF YOUR ID TO VERIFY YOU ARE OVER 18!

COLT SERVICE MODEL ACE #SM29969
PHOTO LINK 1 (27 PICS):
PHOTO LINK 2 (33 PICS):
In 1978 Colt returned the Ace Service Model to its line-up in an updated version with Gold Cup sights and cosmetics. These were made from 1978 to 1982, and serial numbered in the range of SM-14001 to SM-43830. A few late guns had the serial number with a letter rather then S.M. Approximately 30,000 were made. The Service Model Ace had a floating chamber and an "SM" prefix, while the true "Ace" was a blowback and had no prefix and were a tribute to the Pre-WW2 and WW2 Colt Service Model Ace. Pistol is in 98+% condition. No idea who did the engraving. I don't believe it is factory, but have not lettered it to find out. The grips are real Sambar Stag that haven't been imported since 1996 into the U.S. The box and paperwork are original but the box is numbered a few hundred lower than the pistol. The 2 original Colt mags have different markings. Must go to an 01 FFL or better. NOT C&R eligible.

BRITISH BROWN BESS PATTERN 1793 FLINTLOCK/ E.I.C. TYPE 1/ WAR OF 1812!
PHOTO LINK (34 PICS):
For sale is a British Brown Bess Pattern 1793, otherwise called an India Pattern Type 1. It was originally designed for the British East India Company, EIC, as a less expensive alternative to the then standard 1777S in use by regular British forces. With the outbreak of war with France in 1793, the British Government was short of arms for their rapidly growing army and began to buy finished arms of this pattern from EIC inventories. Eventually since most of the British arms makers were already producing this model in their shops; the Government adopted it as well. It was superseded in 1809 by the India Pattern Type 2, which is nearly identical except for a reinforced flint cock and a larger and deeper pan cavity to hold more powder. Both types were used in the Napoleonic Wars as well as the War of 1812 here in America. In fact, they stayed in service until the end of the flintlock era. Some people have suggested the brand on the left cheek piece suggests it might have been used by a Canadian regiment at one time. If it were all there, we would know for sure (great detective project for the Historian out there!). This could be fired if you spent more time cleaning it. It is solid and the lock works excellent. ANTIQUE. NO FFL NEEDED UNLESS THAT IS THE LAW IN YOUR STATE! I WILL REQUIRE A COPY OF YOU ID TO DETERMINE THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD.

WW2 GERMAN SS CONTRACT bnz 43 K98 #528
PICTURE LINK (56 PICS):
For sale is a Steyr built K98. It is marked bnz 43. This rifle was built in 1944, probably April-May timeframe as a guess. Barrel is from Sauer and was supplied to Steyr after the bombing of the factory in Feb-April 1944. This is an SS contract rifle. So called due to the SS overseeing production and using slave labor in the concentration camps to build these. The single SS rune on the bottom of the barrel, the lack of waffenampts and the 3 digit serial number with no letter code, and the bolt only having the serial numbers where they are, are the indicators in this. The fabled “Death’s Head” SS rifles are fiction only. The real SS rifles were not marked where you could see them. This is an item of some controversy, but factory files were found in the Steyr plant that give actual evidence. As far as the condition of the rifle, it has been buffed and reblued with a high polish shine. The extractor on the bolt has been jeweled. The bolt itself chromed or nickeled. The numbers match on the rifle in the places they should. The bands are un-numbered as is correct. The stock was replaced with a Yugo rework K98 laminated stock. The rear hand guard “hood” on the rear of the rear sight has been ground off (as was typical of bring back Veteran owned sporterized K98 rifles), but you can put a hand guard on and with a little JB weld it will stay in place (again, you are not going to hurt the value!) The bore and rifling are in great condition and this will make a nice shooter. An SS contract rifle for under $2,500.00 that you can shoot and not worry about hurting the collectability, while still having the history!

MODEL 1816 FLINTLOCK/ M.T. WICKHAM/ N.J. STATE MUSKET
PHOTO LINK (39 PICS):
For sale is an M.T. Wickham Model 1816 musket in the original flintlock configuration. Marin T. Wickham of Philadelphia, Pa., was an armorer, contractor of July 19, 1822, to the U.S. Ordnance Department for 5,000 Model 1816 muskets at $12.00 per stand, deliverable at the rate of 2,000 per year from January 1, 1823. On December 6, 1823, M.T. Wickham undertook another contract for 10,000 additional muskets to be delivered at the rate of 2,000 a year from July 1, 1824.
He was probably the most notable armorer to work at Harpers Ferry before 1816. Equally adept at forging, filing, stocking, and engraving firearms, he was an excellent gunsmith. In 1808 the secretary of war selected Wickham to be Master Armorer at Harpers Ferry. In Philadelphia, Wickham served as an inspector of contract arms and general troubleshooter at the national armories between 1811 and 1816. He was known as a superior artist and played a prominent part in designing the new Model 1812 regulation musket.
This particular musket was shortened to an Artillery Musketoon. It was built for the state of New Jersey. It is stamped “SNJ” on the barrel and stock, along with other government markings. Also branded “Monmouth Brigade” in two places. One has a star next to it. There is a 3 also. Perhaps 3rd New Jersey? (If you know for sure, please send me a PM here). Has not been converted. The barrel looks clean enough so it could actually be fired (at new owner’s discretion!). The ramrod is incorrect. Great piece of New jersey history at a very affordable price! ANTIQUE/ NO FFL NEEDED (UNLESS REQUIRED IN YOUR STATE!) I WILL REQUIRE A COPY OF YOUR ID TO VERIFY YOU ARE AT LEAST 18.

WW2 SAVAGE MODEL 720 AERIAL GUNNER TRAINING SHOTGUN #77446
PHOTO LINK (31 PICS):
For sale is a World War 2 production Savage Model 720 that is U.S. Military proofed and accepted for training pilots and gunners on shooting aerial targets. The Savage Model 720 is known as a cheaper and no-frills copy of the Browning A5. Both the U.S. Army Air Corp and the U.S. Navy bought these Model 720s in both short barreled "Riot" configurations, and long barreled versions like this one. The long barreled versions were sent to training bases/schools to be used in training the art of shooting moving targets with a "lead". A small number of the long barreled versions were also used as guard duty guns in areas where there were lots of personnel due to the shorter lethal range of a shotgun. The widely accepted and known range of the WW2 production U.S. Military Savage Model 720s is 69400 to 88250. This Model 720 is serial number 77446 and is 100% original, correct, and matching. It has a parkerized finish with an oil finished Walnut stock set. The original parkerizing is in excellent condition and rates 96%. The only deduction that can be found is small spot on the underside of the barrel, in front of the hand guard. Looks like a tiny bit of oxidizing in the finish. As you can see in the pictures, the parkerizing looks great and is nice and uniform on all of the metal parts. The receiver is stamped on the left side with a "P", an U.S. Ordnance bomb, and "U.S.". In addition to the standard Savage markings the barrel is also stamped with a U.S. Ordnance bomb and a "P". Both the receiver and the barrel are stamped with the same serial number. The serial number on the barrel is on the underside, only visible if you remove the forearm. The bore in the 26" inch improved cylinder choked barrel is minty and bright. It shows no dents, bulges, pits, or defects of any type. The oil finished Walnut stock set is also in excellent condition. The forearm has what appears to be a gouge, clearly shown in the pictures. Everything on this shotgun works 100% like the day it left the factory. This Savage Model 720 has obviously spent most of its life in storage as the internals are as pristine as the exterior. It probably has not been fired more than a handful of times. If you are a collector of WW2 weapons or military guns in general this Savage would be an excellent addition to your collection. The historical value alone of this tool used to sharpen our pilots and gunners shooting skills makes it quite an interesting piece. This is a scarce find, and as you can see from the pictures it would be nearly impossible to find a better example.

RARE IRWIN PEDERSEN M1 CARBINE #1778577

PHOTO ALBUM 2 (28 PICS): https://imgur.com/a/qk92JgD
PHOTO ALBUM 3 (49 PICS): https://imgur.com/a/Dcg9uiu
For sale is an Irwin-Pedersen M1 Carbine. Rear sight is a reproduction and barrel is a correct Underwood, but not as used by Irwin Pedersen (that barrel had the proof P 6" from the muzzle, this has it 4" away as was used by all other manufacturers). Here's one of the hardest WWII M1 Carbines to locate. This carbine has an Irwin-Pedersen marked receiver and was assembled by Saginaw S'G' (Grand Rapids) in 1943. It appears to have been partially restored. The barrel is original to the receiver and correctly marked Underwood and dated 6-43 (Underwood supplied most of the barrels used on I-P carbines). The receiver, barrel, and many of the parts appear to have their original finish. All of the parts are also correctly Irwin-Pedersen or S'G'. There are NO import markings however there is an MR (Mt. Rainier) rework stamp on the left side of the sanded stock. Overall condition is very good. No rust or pitting. The mechanics appear to be in good working order and the bore is in very good shape with bright, sharp rifling and a good muzzle erosion reading of 2. This carbine comes with a WWII sling, oiler, and type 1 15-round magazine. A decent example of a hard to find M1 Carbine with only about 1/10th of 1% of all carbines made being Irwin-Pedersen.

SPRINGFIELD ARMORY MODEL 1884 CARBINE #450814/ ALL ORIGINAL!
PHOTO LINK (31 PICS):
For sale is a Springfield Armory Model 1884 Carbine. This is an all original carbine in caliber .45-70 (black powder or Cowboy Action loads ONLY). The designation, Model 1884, is somewhat nebulous. The changes that are associated with the model all occurred before or after 1884. For example, the trigger associated with the model is serrated, that change occurred in 1883. Likewise, the Buffington rear sight was not perfected for the gun until 1885. Also, the breech block which is dated "1884" did not appear on guns until 1887. So, there were no obvious changes that occurred with the beginning of 1884. However, the Buffington rear sight is the one item that collectors associate with the model. It should be said that marksmen found the sight to be excellent, but troops found it to be an obstruction. The Model 1884 carbine has the same changes. However, because the rear sight could be easily damaged when taken in and out of the carbine boot, a rear sight guard was made as part of the barrel band. It was designated the Model 1890 Rear Sight Protector. Both the rifle and the carbine can be found with a milled front sight cover or with one of several snap-on covers. Several versions of the Model 1883 cover were made for the rifle and the carbine. Some were stamped with a letter, ("R" or "C") denoting rifle or carbine, but most were unmarked. This carbine does not have a cover. This is the last year that carbines were made (some were re-issued later, but no more made after 1889). There were 5,000 carbines made in 1889. Some of these were used in the tail end of the Indian wars. It DOES have the original Carbine Buffington rear sight. It is marked with a C (Buffington RIFLE sights were marked with an R). The stock has a decent 1889 cartouche. It is also in very good condition with no breaks anywhere. The rifling and bore are in OK antique condition. I suspect they will both clean up better with a few shots fired. It gets the crud out! The butt plate is rusty and the little door is frozen shut. Needs to be soaked in penetrating oil for a week. This is a cheap way to get into an original Trapdoor Carbine that you can not feel bad about shooting.

EARLY ITHACA 1911A1 R.I.A. REBUILD/ ALL U.S.G.I. PARTS #897050 W/SHIPPING DOC
PHOTO LINK (27 PICS):
For sale is an Ithaca 1911A1 WW2 rebuild. Ser# 897050. It was shipped on August 30, 1943 to the Commanding Officer of the Ordnance Depot, Nixon, New jersey. It was sent right to the piers for transport to Europe! There were 100 extra magazines shipped in that case as well. I have a copy of the original shipping manifest for this exact pistol. It's a picture, but came from the original shipping records. You can print it out. This pistol was rebuilt at Rock Island Arsenal. The RIA stamp is on the right side of the pistol as per usual. The serial number stamping is an anomaly on this Ithaca. The ser# was stamped at an angle. Ser#898637 is an anomaly also. It has the United States Property stamped at an angle. These are two examples (along with Ser#892324, that has very crude machining on the frame and slide) that show how much Ithaca had trouble getting their act together in the start. They did however, manage to produce some very fine pistols after the quirks were worked out.
The slide is from a WW2 Colt that was shipped to the Transportation Officer, Springfield Armory on June 28, 1943 in a shipment of 2,000 pistols. The firing pin stop has a ghost image of the serial number, meaning that it is correct and original to the slide.
The barrel is from a commercial 1911 Colt pistol from 1919-1923 I believe. It has all the right characteristics and most likely came from another Military/Commercial pistol that was being rebuilt at the time. The serial number 27387 is stamped and Colt did that on some of their pistols at rebuild. It has the correct font and style to be the work of Colt. The bore and rifling have some pitting, but should clean up better with some shooting. I have shot barrels like this and they are still pretty accurate. AS AN ASIDE, I will include a WW2 (correct for this rebuild era) Springfield Armory replacement barrel with correct markings (i.e. the heat lot on the side of the chamber), for an extra $60.00, ONLY TO THE BUYER! This barrel is all original and in 90+% condition. Here are pics of THAT barrel: https://imgur.com/a/UoQF1bO
The grips are the correct reinforced back, small reinforcing ring, Keyes grips for Ithaca, US&S and Remington Rand. This type was used on the 2nd and third types of these pistols. The magazine is a Military 1950's or 60's replacement that would be correct for the rebuild era.
The finish is some kind of greenish tint, oil finish type of paint or coating. It MAY clean right off and reveal the original arsenal finish underneath, but it actually looks pretty good and matches well.
A decent representative WW2 rebuild, with some very cool history, at an affordable price.

WW1 GERMAN MODEL 1898 BAYONET/ SCABBARD
German Model 1898 A.a. old pattern WW1 bayonet. Early WW1 model as it does not have the flash guard on the top side of the grips. It is NOT a cut down model, but I can't find any markings. Made by Erfurt (same company that made your WW 1 Luger) most likely. Scabbard is correct for earlier version (M1898) model too. Grips are in great condition. Nice example of an early war bayonet.

This is a rare transitional model as the quillion was supposed to be cut off as the grips were changed to brass from the original German silver metal. Rare model not seen very often. Serial number is 10035 ON THE QUILLION. 78798 (the best I can tell) ON THE SCABBARD. These were not factory matched at time of issue. I see these listed at $225-$275.00

S&W VICTORY MODEL REVOLVER PARTS
Here is an original WW2 S&W Victory Revolver frame and barrel. The frame is a fall 1942 serial number. Threads are very good and not buggered up. Markings are very clear. Has the GHD on the bottom (Guy H. Drewery, inspector at Springfield Armory at this time). Barrel is a late summer 1942 date. I believe it is close to N.O.S.. It has EXCELLENT rifling and bore. Little dirt at the end of the muzzle from storage but shiny new inside and out. Original finish on both parts. The frame will require an 01 FFL or better as it is only a frame and not a complete pistol. Great opportunity to replace a buggered up frame and/or barrel! NO IMPORT MARKS!

REMINGTON UMC 1911 TOP END PARTS
PHOTO LINK (27 PICS):
For sale is a full top end for a late Remington UMC 1911. The slide would be correct for pistols in the +/- 20,000 production at ser# 21676. The rest of the parts are correct throughout production. All are original Rem.UMC parts. These are from a destroyed pistol that was parts salvaged many years ago. If you know Remington UMC, then you know how hard it is to find good condition, original finish parts. This was because the finish was so delicate (akin to the Colt "Black Army" finish). Many of these pistols have pitting. A lot of that is due to Navy issued sidearms. The salt water spray ate at them. It's not uncommon to see "rust" in the finish of the pistol (also in the metal, but in the finish itself). The barrel still retains rifling and will shoot ok. Again, as most collectors know, barrel condition does not count very much anymore. These are not shot. Most of the collectors just want to see proper markings and many do not even care if it has the correct barrel. They are more concerned with the slide/frame. Unless it's a piece worth several thousand dollars it just doesn't seem to matter as much (some of us are spoiled though! lol). Anyway, this will complete a UMC frame and give you a complete pistol.

MAG/SLAB: THE COLLECTOR'S CHOICE
HERE IS A PRODUCT I LOVE AND ONE I BELIEVE YOU WILL TOO!
AN EXCERPT FROM THE CREATOR OF MAG/SLAB:
ENGINEERING AN HEIRLOOM
A search for suitable stands to hold my modest collection of vintage M1911 and M1911A1 pistols kept coming up empty.
So I designed something to fit my needs:
- I was running out of room in my safe and wanted to take advantage of the vertical space... stand the pistols up.
- Handling the pistols in and out of the safe required a device to lock the pistols firmly to the pedestal.
- Some of the old magazines are very rare and should be kept with the pistol... hold the magazine safely in place.
- I wanted a well built product, something really nice, heirloom quality.
The solution is MAG/SLAB.
THESE ARE AMAZING! HERE IS THE LINK TO THE WEBSITE. I HAVE NO AFFILIATION, JUST WANT TO PASS ON A GREAT PRODUCT THAT WORKS VERY WELL AND IS AFFORDABLE AND
WELL BUILT.

BERETTA ITALY S682 SPECIAL SKEET SHOTGUN #D85044B
PHOTO LINK (43 PICS):
For sale is a Beretta S682 Skeet O/U shotgun ser# D85044B. It is in 12 gauge and uses 2 3/4" shells. It was manufactured in 1984 per the AM in a square on the barrel. All serial numbers match (receiver, barrels, ejectors, hand guard/forend). This shotgun features 26” fixed choke (skeet choke) barrels. For frequent Skeet, fixed barrels offer the advantage of very low maintenance. Between the clean monobloc and receiver, no-tools pop-out ejectors, and fixed constrictions, this gun would be a snap to maintain perfectly. The earlier 682s did have heavier barrels and frames, though they generally had slightly shorter barrels than current ones. They feel more like a DT, for want of any other comparison. This shotgun is mounted with a full length rib, a mid rib brass bead and a red fiber optic bead at the muzzle. This is one of the great Over/Under shotguns of recent years. It is a competition grade 12 Gauge Skeet shotgun, manufactured, marketed, and distributed by Beretta, Italy. Few guns have developed the loyal following that these 682's have - if you are a skeet shooter, buy this beauty and find out why! The overall condition is 93%. There are a few scratches on the stock and a spot of touched up bluing on the barrel. The bores and barrels are mirror shiny. Very hard to photograph! Pictures will tell the whole story. A beautiful gun at a very affordable price!

A.H. FOX STERLINGWORTH 12 GA. SIDE BY SIDE SHOTGUN #78223/ 1916
PHOTO LINK (33 PICS):
For sale is an A.H. Fox Sterlingworth 12 Gauge double barrel shotgun, SER# 78223. Manufactured in 1916. These shotguns ran from ser#53800 in 1910 – ser#161556 in 1947. 28” barrels. I believe they referred to this as the "Field Model". This shotgun features double bead sights on solid matte concave rib, choked full/improved modified, 2 3/4" (2 5/8”- more below on that) chambers with extractors. Casehardened receiver and break lever with the receiver marked "Sterlingworth" on each side along with engraved zigzag borders, double triggers and a tang mounted automatic safety. Mounted with a checkered forearm and pistol grip stock with a black serrated plastic buttplate. 14 1/8" length of pull. These are built like a brick outhouse, and are tighter than a bank vault! This shotgun is in excellent, original condition inside and out. These were made as a step down from the exquisite models that most big name shotgun companied were making at the time. They have become very collectible in their own right.
The 2 5/8" chambers were STANDARD for US made (and imported) 12 ga. shotguns made until (normally) just after WWI. (Actually, most of the shells of that era were manufactured to a 2 9/16" length, but there was a tolerance to 2 5/8" length.) Some manufacturers made them later than that date. Then they were "standardized" at 2 3/4". I have personally shot one of these for over 20 years with Target and Field loads with no problems. An excellent pheasant gun!

BERETTA A-302 SEMI-AUTO 20 GA. SHOTGUN #G49132E
PHOTO LINK (39 PICS):
For sale is a Beretta A-302 semi-auto .20 gauge shotgun, ser# G49132E. It was manufactured in 1984, per the AM in a square, date code. 3" Magnum, semi-auto field gun with 26” barrel. Modified choke. No extra choke tubes come with it (see below). Excellent condition. Barrel and receiver do not match numbers, as these NEVER matched from the factory. One of the only guns that the barrels did not match the receiver number. Look it up. Comes with the Variable Height stick on cheek rest (held on with stickers that can easily be removed with no stock damage). Also comes with Morgan adjustable butt pad installed. These were both installed years ago by a gunsmith.
The 302 was the first Beretta model to have choke tubes, and they were different from the ones used later. They dropped into the muzzle without threads, and were held in place with a threaded collar on the outside of the barrel. Beretta originally called them "Mobil Chokes", but later used the same name on the internal type. Now, Beretta's European parts distributor Armeria Brignoli Silvio refers to them as 302 chokes, even though they were also used on a few 303's. Most people call them "drop-in" or "collared" chokes. They are available from Brignoli and other places and seem to be fairly inexspensive. This is a beautiful, light shotgun. With the adjustable cheek rest and recoil pad, it should make a great dove gun or youth gun. Fun for clay's too! These are scarce in 20 gauge.

SHARPS & HANKINS MODEL 2A 4-SHOT PEPPERBOX PISTOL/ 1866/ ORIGINAL! #5153
PHOTO LINK (22 PICS):
For sale is a Sharps & Hankins Breech-Loading 4-Shot Pepperbox Pistol, Model 2A. Caliber .30 rimfire. Serial # 5153. Serial numbers match on frame and barrel. Grips were not numbered on these. All original piece. The four-shot, breech loading, pepperbox pistol was a true gun of the Old West. It is associated with the gamblers, ladies of the evening, and as a hide-out gun of the outlaws and lawmen of the time. It's use during the Civil war is questionable, but surely was carried by more than one soldier on either side. Condition is antique fine. Barrels show very visible rifling with pitting in the grooves. These were made from 1859-1874. This one was made approx. in 1866. These incorporate a unique patented design where the hammer mounted firing pin rotates. Works excellent. The barrel slides forward perfectly. ANTIQUE/ NO FFL NEEDED (UNLESS REQUIRED IN YOUR STATE!). I REQUIRE A COPY OF YOUR ID TO VERIFY 18 OR OLDER.

REMINGTON MODEL 11 "THE SPORTSMAN" 12 GA/ 1941/ #442976
PHOTO LINK (32 PICS):
For sale is a Remington Model 11 "The Sportsman" 12 gauge shotgun. Ser# 442976 is a 3 shot sporting version made in April 1941 (Remington date code CK). This was made approx. 7,000 guns prior to the first U.S. Military shotguns bought for training in WW2 (those start at about ser# 450,000 and the Military bought thousands of them). This sports a 26" barrel (actually measures 27", but the actual barrel part is 26"), Modified choke and 2 3/4" chamber. This shotgun is in beautiful condition and is all original, except the Ruger butt pad that was added (actually a GREAT thing as red rubber Ruger butt pads are impossible to find!). Original butt plates (plastic) are available online for about $15-$20. The chamber has a little fouling but is still very nice. The rest of the barrel is shiny and very good. There is tons of life left in this old Browning designed auto! A great piece at a very affordable price! C&R eligible.

REMINGTON MODEL 3200 O/U SHOTGUN # OU.28373
PHOTO LINK (41 PICS):
For sale is a Remington Model 3200 O/U shotgun. It is in 12 gauge. Ser# OU.28373 was manufactured in July 1974, making it 46 years old this month! This is a second year production gun, as these were made from 1973 to 1984 with some custom guns after that. This is a very loved model and it is a great shotgun. It sports 26" Improved cylinder barrels with factory porting, making for a very light, lower recoild field gun. The entire gun is in 95% condition. The barrels are both mirror shiny at both ends. The factory butt plate is missing (the original ownere threw a Pachmayer recoil pad on), but these are available online for $15.00. If you are looking to buy one there are a few things to watch out for. The Remington 3200 came out in 1973-74. The first guns produced had two pins on the rear of the receiver. These guns had to be sent back to Remington for an update after Remington made a recall. This particular gun was factory updated by Remington in the 1980's. The recall improved the consistency of trigger pull, improved the wood to receiver fit, and improved the strength of the top tang and bottom tang by adding metal between them. Guns that were made after 1976 or so (serial #'s above 30,000) only had one pin at the rear of the receiver. These guns were produced from the factory with the updates and thus didn't need to be sent back. Some will look at the serial # on the bottom of the receiver to check for the updates. Remington put a dot between the "OU" and the serial number after the gun was updated. The only way to tell if the updates have been done to a 3200 is to look at the bottom of the breechface with the barrels removed. If you see two hex head screws, the updates have been done as seen in the pictures. If the gun you are looking at does not have these updates, it will cost you about $700.00 to have them done by Laib's Gunsmithing. This gun was updated by Remington (per the factory repair stampings on the barrel), so no worries. It is all set to shoot thousands of rounds! An absolutely beautiful piece for field or a fun skeet gun. These were bring $1,400 in 2007 with the upgrades! I'm blowing this out at $1,000!!!

CALIFORNIA C&R LAWS
CA C&R FFL LAWS FOR HANDGUNS, RIFLES & SHOTGUNS
You can NOT have C&R firearms directly shipped to you from out of state. All firearms have to be shipped to a CA dealer for transfer. With a CA DOJ COE and a C&R FFL, you would be exempt from the waiting period and 1 FIREARM in 30 days for handguns for C&R firearms.
You can go out of state and PERSONALLY (NOT SHIPPED) buy C&R firearms and submit the CA DOJ form. It changed in 2015. There are those who ignore all of the CA PC sections and claim that it can be done, but refuse to post the exemption to the specific section which says no. It is 27585 and 27565.
