One more hard to find rimfire added to the herd

Post by jdad »

Remington Target Model 12-C NRA! These are to hard to find, if at all, so when I found this restored one I jumped on it. It's been professionally restored and doesn't look like it was handled or shot since the work was done. It was one of those deals that really was a great deal.

Notice the windage adjustable front globe, front (only) sling ring, and no rear sight dovetail.

I have never seen one. That is neat. Lots of 12s out there, some in excellent condition

That's one fine little .22, I surely would've grabbed it up, too. Love those slick little Remington pumps, no matter the caliber. 12, 14, 14 1/2, 25, makes no matter, they're all great. :D

I'd really like to have a Model 25 chambered in 32-20, but even "shooter" grade M25's cost 50% more than what I paid for this. :shock:

I seem to remember seeing an exhibition shooter giving a demonstration using one of those one time. they must have been reliable.

Thanks All.

I've been too busy the last 2 weekends, so today I'm finally taking it to the range. I'll put it on paper just to see if the sights are aligned, then I'll set up a couple of long lines of chickens and pigs. No rifle is too pretty for me to shoot. :D
