serial #40065, 22 RF, 22 1/2” octagon barrel with a good bore showing light pinprick pitting and slightly worn but good rifling throughout. The barrel of this rather nice No. 4 retains about 85% original blue showing some sharp edge wear and most of the loss a few inches back from the muzzle which shows some thin cleaning striations and old oxidation. The barrel shows crisp Remington Arms Co. markings and the action is quite nice retaining about 92% fine vibrant case-hardened colors with a little scattered gray-brown speckling and some areas taking on a pleasant smoky gray case-hardened patina. The small parts retain about 90% original bright blue while the screw heads show nice fire blue. The smooth walnut buttstock and forend remain in very fine condition retaining most of their original oil finish, the buttstock with some small abrasions along the right side and a small chip on either side of the upper tang where it meets the action. The simple sporting sights are intact and the action seems to function well mechanically. (13B10826-165) {C&R} [Dr. W. Lloyd Hudson, Jr. Collection] (700/900)
