Description:

Remington's "F Grade" guns were a product of the custom shop and are entirely hand fitted before undergoing the extensive embellishment process displayed on this rifle. Blued barrel with a ramped beaded blade front sight, elevation adjustable rear sight, standard markings, and a wedge of scroll engraving at the breech extending toward the muzzle. The receiver is covered in absolute fantastic broad leafy scrollwork surrounding seven separate game scenes. The scenes consist of a grizzly bear, a moose, and a deer on the left; a deer on the top side, and a big horn ram, a bugling elk, and a cougar on the right, all of which are rendered in high detail. The scroll extends to the trigger guard and underside of the action where it surrounds the hand cut manufacturer, model, and serial number markings. The gun is signed with a small "E" beneath the moose on the left, the signature of Remington Master Engraver Carl Ennis. Beautifully figured, multi-point checkered forend and pistol grip stock with factory grip cap, blank gold inscription oval, and serrated buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, retaining 99% original blue finish with minimal handling evidence. The wood is very fine with a few dings at the toe, scattered light scratches, and sharp checkering. Mechanically excellent.
