Model 81A .30 with Case
Posted: Fri Jan 01, 2010 2:22 pm
Hey Guys,
What a way to start the new year. Happy New Year To Me! Patience pays off for me and I am glad that it has been rewarded.
I finally found a Model 81A .30. I have been looking for a .30 for sometime and have passed on some nice rifles. This rifle was in a private collection for over 40 years and comes with a bonus "mutton" case and a very nice poster. Note the 81A on the leather case. I could not see a Remington mark on the case, but I have to believe that it came from the factory since the rifle, which is a Model 81A and the case both have the same model numbers and were purchased as a set. If I am incorrect in my assumption, I am sure there is someone out there to correct me. I look forward to some comments.
If you would like to see some pictures just use the link I have provided.
