Here's one you don't see very often. When I was home at Thanksgiving I dug through my Dad's old gun collection and found an old .22 rifle that I regard as a classic. It's an old Remington 341 Sportmaster. These guns were only made from 1936 to 1940 and there were 131,064 sold. It's a standard model with only the simple iron sights, but boy is it accurate. They went for around $14 when new. This one is marked "AF" indicating a manufacture date of March 1937.
The 341 is one awesome 22 bolt action. A real tack driver.
I bought one from an online forum. Both grandsons wanted to shoot it when we visited the silhouette range, so I bought another. The second is as good as the first! This must have been a winner in the late '30s, depression times notwithstanding.
All nice presentations of what i learned to shoot with.
BWDilli,
Thanks for the pic showing the rear site aperature!! i now know what the heck the two tapped holes were for on my families' old Target master. Not sure if it is a 341 since it was single shot with no magazine. if i recall it was a TP41 or a TP44.
thanks again
