Stock Stamping
Posted: Thu Jan 09, 2020 11:33 am
Hello All,
I'm in the process of doing a light restoration on a 1908 Remington Auto loader that was in very rough shape. During the stripping process and repair of the rear stock I uncovered some interesting stamping you knowledgeable fellas could have info on. On the left side I found the stamping V.V. and on the right side of the gun in the wrist section I found the stamping F.S. BANK or F.S. BA?K
Could this be an early Rail/Coach gun. I have saw doubles stamped with Wells Fargo and similar stamps.
What are your thoughts?
