Re: New Member from Germany and question...
Oliver, Welcome to the forum! I do not think that a regular magazine or a Krieger conversion type magazine will work on a POE modified Remington Autoloading rifle. I have seen POE magazines for sale maybe once or twice in the past 28 years.

If your gun is in the 26000 range it is 1910-1911.

Re: Cased set, Early Krieger 81 with extras
That is such a wonderful setup. I think this is the second cased Remington Autoloader I've ever seen. This is a magnificent example.

Your rifle shipped from Remington in 1915. The "N" and "circle K" are called "assemblers and fitters markings".

Re: Remington 8 .25 Remington 1911 $1200
I don't know if the trigger guard serial matches, but the barrel matches the receiver. The only thing bad about this gun is that someone drilled holes in the bottom of the forearm and stock to mount now long gone sling swivels.

Re: reloading remington 30 cal.
First thing you need to do is find a source of brass cartridge cases for .30 Remington. The major ammo companies stopped selling loaded .30 Remington cartridges in 1997. Graf's used to sell brass for about a buck apiece, but I think they're out of stock. Some other companies like Midway or Old Weste...
