RARE Remington, Model 16 Take-down, Marked .22 REM AUTO Cal., MFG. 1916, SN: 2 (RARE single digit), Semi-Auto Rifle, 22'' Tapered round barrel. This rifle came out of the Remington Factory Archive Collection, along with another non-serialized prototype. It was literally the 2nd rifle produced & serialized. The model was Remington's first production semi-auto .22 rifle produced 1916-28. Just 17,720 were manufactured during the 13 yrs of production. The .22 Remington Auto fired a 45 grain bullet approximately 950 feet per second, with 90 lb ft of muzzle energy. Due to the larger diameter of the case, the cartridge is not interchangeable with the .22 Short, Long or Long Rifle. The reason for the unique cartridge was to prevent black powder .22 cartridges (which the standard .22 S, L, & LR were originally) from being fired in this gun. Black powder doesn't work well in semi-auto guns (another reason the semi-autos arrived on the scene around the time of the adoption of smokeless powder). The original factory wood stocks & finish on this example are excellent, with a few minor finish level scuffs or handling marks. The original factory metal blue finish is 99%, with a few very thin scratches on the receiver. Bore is excellent. Factory sights. Rare opportunity for Remington collectors to purchase a single digit rifle from the factory collection, which remains in original,& highly collectable condition. FFL or C&R Req - Value: 1500 to 3500
