Remington 552 Speedmaster 22lr Semi Auto Rifle Threaded Barrel - Excellent Condition

Description:
Beautiful 1971 Remington Speedmaster.  Threaded barrel.  Nice furniture with a pretty wood figure in excellent condition.  Bluing is 98+.  Has the original metal sight and sling studs.  The thread protector doesn't fit properly and should be replaced with one that fits or an appropriate muzzle break.  It's hard to find one in this condition, especially one that's threaded.

Overview:
The Remington Model 552 Speedmaster is a blow-back operated, self-loading, semi-automatic rifle that can fire .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle cartridges.  Ammunition is fed from a tubular magazine under the barrel.

History and Features:
Designed by Remington engineers L.R. Crittendon and E.W. Hailston, and first introduced in 1957, the model 552 features a self-loading, blowback action featuring a low-profile left-side bolt handle that lends itself to a clean receiver appearance and slender profile. The rifle is equipped with both open sights and a 3/8" (9.5 mm) dovetail rail for mounting a scope and a safety on the trigger guard. The Speedmaster was manufactured from 1957 to 1988 in a standard model. In 1966, Remington offered this rifle with a special stamping of the company's 150th anniversary on the left side of the receiver.
In 1991, the walnut butt stock of the BDL Deluxe version was altered to incorporate a Monte Carlo comb to improve cheek weld when using the rifle with a telescopic sight, while the impressed checkering on the butt stock and forearm was changed to machine-cut checkering.  In 2017, after complaints that the Monte Carlo comb made the rifle difficult to use with open sights, Remington returned to a straight comb stock design for current production BDL rifles.

The Speedmaster was produced until 2020 in an upgraded "BDL" model, featuring a checkered walnut butt stock and forearm with a gloss finish.
