All I know is those are nice looking rifles, a U.S. cartouche like that one pictured is something I am on the hunt for.

Oh, all three barrel shank pics (before I bust my gut laughing).

1917 Finned Sestroryetsk with Austrian marked stock
1918 Remington with various Russian arsenal parts/stock and SCW sling hangers
1917 Remington US Surcharged

I'll get individual write-ups over the next couple of weeks. Thanks all for playing along!

Because I only had ONE measly Remington before....

....1917 Remington Armory M91, converted to a single shot Japanese Trainer rifle.

The stock is the original Remington, and the barrel is stamped with the later 1917 "sans serif" arsenal marks.

Image


The cartouche on the underside, just in front of the trigger guard, and the painted mark on the buttstock represent Meiji University of Tokyo (source: seinin of Gunboards and http://www.gunboards.com/sites/banza...ainer_markings ). The rack number on the right side has been translated to 587, by CW of Gunboards. The one mark on the inside of the stock is located behind the cleaning rod lug, and appears to be stamped B29. The original Remington cartouche is also intact under the rack number.
