Description:

A top-tier Remington Custom Shop Premier Grade rifle, this exceptional piece represents the highest level of Remington factory craftsmanship, with extensive hand fitting, master engraving, gold inlay, and fancy American walnut. With over 95% receiver coverage, multiple gold-inlaid scene panels, Robert P. Runge initials, and consecutive serialization to the following lot, it stands out as a highly desirable collector-grade Remington.
  • Product of the Remington Custom Shop, representing Remington’s highest-grade factory work
  • Premier Grade model—the top tier of Remington’s factory offerings
  • Built with full top-to-bottom hand fitting of all firearm components
  • Premier-grade upgrades include:
    • Detailed engraving
    • High-quality gold inlay
    • Very fancy walnut stock
    • Extensive hand-finished metalwork
  • Metalwork alone could represent approximately 80 man-hours of labor, underscoring the custom-shop quality and craftsmanship
  • Receiver features over 95% coverage of fine scroll engraving and punch-dot background work, giving the metalwork a rich, deeply detailed appearance
  • Hand-engraved model markings and serial number add to the bespoke, collectible character
  • Both sides of the receiver display three gold-inlaid scene panels
  • Right-side scene panels are especially notable:
    • Unlike the more typical arrangement of three separate, disconnected scenes, all three right-side panels share a single continuous background
    • This gives the engraving a more unified, artistic presentation
  • Left side bears the initials “RPR,” identifying Robert P. Runge
  • Fitted with a checkered, fancy American walnut stock
  • Stock features:
    • Hard rubber Remington grip cap
    • Blank inscription panel
    • Serrated plastic buttplate
  • Described as a phenomenal master-engraved rifle
  • Consecutively serial numbered to the following lot, adding significant collector interest for buyers seeking a matched or related pair
With its Remington Custom Shop origin, Premier Grade status, extensive gold-inlaid engraving, remarkable continuous right-side scene layout, and consecutive serial-number relationship to the next lot, this rifle offers exceptional appeal as a factory-original investment-grade Remington collectible.

Condition

Excellent with 97% plus original blue finish and a few minor handling marks overall. The engraving is all sharply executed including the fine detail in the background scenes and on the animals.
