Description:
Remington Lifter Action Model 1876 Grade 1. Serial No. 5046.: Marked on the top rib “E. Remington & Sons, Ilion, N.Y.” 12 gauge, 2 3/4" chambers, 30" fluid steel barresls, chokes full and full. There are no dents in the barrels and the bores are lightly pitted but still quite shootable. About 0.005" would clean them up. Since it was made in 1877 it is an antique and requires no FFL for transfer. This is actually a transition gun form model 1876 to 1878. The serial number is in the M ’76 range with all that model’s standard characteristics (lifter action, pinned forend, Hepburn’s 1875 patent locks, flat hammer faces, and non-sliding top plate on the action between the balls). However, like on the Model 1878 there are no vestigial flash shields. It is a 12 gauge with 30” full choke bored barrels. The gun is mechanically excellent and cosmetically an even patina with no rust. Bores are lightly pitted. You can get them cleaned up to like new at Skeet's gun shop (918-456-4749) foir about $250. I have reduced the price accordingly.The stock has the original steel butt plate, has been cleaned, and a minor professional repair made to the head. Checkering is worn but clear. This is a difficult model to find and would make a fine addition to your collection of early American Shotguns and it is ready to shoot.
