Manufactured by Remington for the U.S. military during World War II, primarily for use by military and industrial guards and for aerial gunnery training, both freehand and in elaborate simulator mounts. "U.S." and flaming bomb along with "MILITARY FINISH" marked left of the receiver, replacement Savage Model 720 barrel stamped with a flaming bomb on the left, chamber marked 2 3/4", choke marked "****" (improved cylinder), and 14" LOP.
Fine with much of the original finish, some scattered light surface freckling, and replacement barrel as mentioned above. The forearm is good as sanded and varnished, with a slightly oversized replacement varnished buttstock. Mechanically excellent.
Receiver manufactured in 1934. "U.S.M.C./12-43/(circled S)" marked replacement Sedgley barrel, "R" bolt, wrist of the stock stamped with a faint boxed cartouche.
Very good as arsenal refurbished, with most of the finish, and a few areas of minor pitting visible underneath the finish. Stock is good as sanded and re-oiled, with scattered light scratches and dents. Absent front barrel band screw, absent rear barrel band retaining spring. Mechanically excellent.
