Our Assessment: The Remington Gamemaster Model 760 Carbine is one of the most recognizable American pump-action centerfire rifles of the post-war era, offering rapid follow-up capability in a compact and field-ready package. Produced in May 1977, this 18 1/2 inch carbine variant emphasizes handiness without sacrificing the proven performance of the .30-06 Springfield cartridge. Introduced in 1906, the .30-06 became one of the most successful and versatile sporting cartridges ever developed, delivering dependable performance across a wide spectrum of North American game. The shorter barrel and balanced profile of the carbine configuration make it especially well suited for timber and brush hunting.
This example retains approximately 98 percent of its original blued finish, with only light thinning on the left action bar and magazine consistent with normal operation. The bore is bright with sharp rifling and rates 9.75 out of 10. The press-checkered walnut stocks remain attractive with only light surface wear and well-defined checkering. The action and cross-bolt safety function correctly. Please see our photos for a better understanding of condition and good luck with your bids! – J.D.
