Default 1907 Remington 1894 “B” Grade:

This is the last 1894 manufactured in 1907. It’s a 30” improved modified & modified. Length of pull is 14.25 to a leather faced Silver’s pad that I believe is a later addition.

In that no production records for Remington Hammerless Doubles have surfaced to date, how can you possibly know that?

The serial number chronologies that the late Charles Semmer produced for his book, Remington Double Shotguns, were interpolated from surviving shipping records.

I stand corrected, #136292 was the last 1894 shipped in 1907.
