Our Assessment: This is one of the few over-under shotgun models ever produced by Remington. The design is essentially the same as the Krieghoff Model 32 and the fit and finish isn’t far off from a Krieghoff, either. This shotgun is in about Fine condition with 95% of its finish remaining, good bores, and strong mechanics. This would make a fine gun to use as a range workhorse breaking clays or out in the field dropping birds. Please see our photos and good luck!
