Re: FN 1900 with scope bracket, value issue

That may be a rifle I considered buying it sure looks familiar.... if it's the same gun and at the same shop it's been around awhile. I balked at importing it for time, cost, and hassle.

Re: GB M8 huh?

Maybe, I am looking at this rifle with an eye more as a collectible than a shooter. I still see a high 90% condition 8 that would be somewhat hard to upgrade and should sell for a premium dollar.

Nice vid and good shooting. The loosening of the takedown screw will continue if you keep using it to hold the sling .... while it looks like it was made to hold a sling >>> it is for take down only.

Re: First year Remington Autoloading Rifle

As I suspected the toe has been chipped and repaired. I think you should be able to find a picture of the buttplate you have unaltered in the Model 8 Gallery pics.

The damage to the toe and the repaired crack in the forend will hurt the value quite a bit.
