Remington Mohawk 10C 22lr - Collector Condition
Description: This is a first-year production 1972 Remington Mohawk 10 C in collector condition. Remington Nylon Rifles In the late 1950s, Remington Arms was searching for a 22-rimfire semiauto rifle design that could be inexpensively produced with a minimum of machining or hand fitting. What they came up with was the Nylon 66, a unique design in which the gun stock also acts as the receiver holding the bolt, trigger assembly, and barrel together. In most cartridge long guns; the receiver, barrel, and bolt can be removed from the stock as one unit. Not so with the Nylon rifles. First introduced in 1959, the Nylon 66 was named after Dupont's designation for the plastic used to make the rifle stock. Cast in two parts, each half of the stock was bonded together to form a strong rigid receiver for the other rifle parts, requiring little if any fitting. Nylon Rifle Variants The original Nylon 66 design in 22 long rifle with its tubular magazine sold best of all with over a million units produced, but Remington used the technology for other rimfire rifle variants as well. The bolt Action Nylon Rifles were produced from 1962 to 65. The Nylon 10 single shot, the Nylon 11 clip-fed and the tube magazine Nylon 12 only had very modest production runs totaling about 50 thousand bolt rifles in total. In 1962 the now much sought-after lever action was introduced. This nylon variant, unfortunately, had only a two-year production run from 1962 to 1964 The five-round clip-fed semi-auto Nylon 77 did not seem to make much headway either with only a two-year production run of less than 16,000 units. In 1972 the Nylon 77 was revamped as the Remington Mohawk 10 C with a 10-round instead of 5 5-round clip. These rifles were made until 1978 with a total production that was 8 times greater than the original Nylon 77. There was also the Remington Nylon 66 GS or the Gallery Special which was produced from 1959 to 1980. The rifle was chambered for 22 shorts and only came in Mohawk brown (Wahl 268) The final run of Remington nylon rifles was the 10-round clip-fed Apache 77 with the green plastic stock. Almost 55 thousand of these rifles were made for Kmart in 1987 and sold exclusively in their stores SPECIFICATIONS Remington Mohawk 10C Cartridge 22 Long Rifle Overall Length (inches)38.5 Weight (lbs) 3.9lbs Barrel Length (inches)19.6" Magazine Capacity10 round detachable magazine Action Type Blowback semi-auto Sights Ramp front sight, open rear sight adjustable for windage and elevation.
