Remington 41 Targetmaster Bolt Action Rifle with UMC Cast Shooting Gallery Base Lot #811 (Sale Order 809 of 889) Remington 41 Targetmaster Bolt Action Rifle with UMC Cast Shooting Gallery Base
Estimate: $700 - $1000 Before the Second World War, carnivals were an American mainstay. It is hard to believe in these days that at one time, shooting galleries that fired live ammunition were the norm. Offered is a very rare UMC cast shooting gallery base. This would have been attached to a long counter for mounting in front of the targets. The original metal UMC top has been restored and a custom cabinet made so as to be free standing. The mounting hardware has been re-engineered to allow the rifle to be removed from display stand, taken into the field and then re-attached for display. This was accomplished by insetting a threaded sleeve into the forearm of the rifle. In essence, you could insert a threaded sleeve into the forearm of any rifle and it, too, would be compatible to this UMC display. The rifle is a pre-war Remington Targetmaster single shot rifle, one of the finer pre-war single shots available at the time. It has sporting rear sigth and doetailed bead front sight. Blue with polished bolt and wlanut stock with checkered black plastic buttplate. BBL: Stock: walnut Gauge: 22 SL LR Finish: blue Grips: Serial Number: NSN Condition: Very good. The rifle retains 40% of original blue finish. The balance is a smooth gray patina, with some scattered minor pitting. The stock is good with some minor dings and scratches. The cabinet has a few minor handling marks. This display would make quite a conversation piece in any gun room with the added benefit of being able to dismount the rifle for everyday use. A one of a kind offering. |
