The DE-quality Remington Hammerless Double was priced about like a CH Parker Bros. These pages from the 1898 Remington Arms Co. catalog --

1898 Remington Arms Co. catalog pg 6.jpg

1898 Remington Arms Co. Catalog pg 7.jpg

From the introduction in October 1894 catalog through the second 1901 catalog Remington Arms Co. only pictured the A-quality gun and just listed the higher quality guns. The 1897 Hartley & Graham catalog pictures all the grades.

I was in Ashville, North Carolina over the weekend and visited the Biltmore. We weren't allowed in the Gun Room, but from the window there appeared to be a pair very similar to Chucks beautiful Remington. Keeping them company looked to be a few Winchester 1894's and a Mannlicher-Schonauer 1903.

Anthony is the one who discovered it at a local auction. I just tried to guide him to the information to make an informed decision. Thanks to everyone, especially Dave and Josh. Can anyone orient the pictures correctly? Seems the smart phone pictures do this quite often! Anyone know how to prevent this with smart phones. It never happened to me using a digital camera.
