A Revolution in Rifle Design: The Story of the Remington Nylon 66
The Remington Nylon 66, introduced in 1959, stands as a landmark in firearm history, renowned for its innovative use of synthetic materials and its impressive reliability. It quickly became one of the most popular .22 caliber rifles ever produced, leaving a lasting legacy.
A Bold Departure: Developed by a team at Remington led by Wayne Leek, the Nylon 66 was a radical departure from traditional rifle manufacturing, which heavily relied on wood and steel. The core of its innovation lay in its receiver and stock, which were crafted from DuPont Zytel nylon resin – a structural plastic. This was a pioneering application of synthetic materials in a mass-produced firearm.
Key Features and Innovations:
Lightweight and Durable: The use of Zytel made the Nylon 66 exceptionally lightweight, making it easy to carry, especially for younger shooters or for extended periods in the field. The nylon material was also incredibly durable, resistant to warping, cracking, and the effects of weather, unlike traditional wood stocks.
Reliability: The rifle gained a reputation for outstanding reliability. The self-lubricating properties of the nylon action components, combined with a design that was less susceptible to dirt and fouling, meant the Nylon 66 could often function flawlessly even with minimal maintenance and under harsh conditions. Stories abound of these rifles enduring significant abuse and still performing.
High-Capacity Tubular Magazine: Most models featured a tubular magazine located in the buttstock, capable of holding 14 .22 Long Rifle cartridges.
