Remington Eddystone Model of 1917

[wctriumph]

I just made a trade and have acquired a Remington Eddystone Model Of 1917. A mixmaster like most but with a barrel date of 8-18 and the serial number on the receiver dating to September 1918 they are most likely original to each other. The rifleing is in great shape, shiny, no pitting and strong lands and grooves. The stock was lightly refinished at sometime so the few cartouches and proofs that remain are very light and there is evidence of a small repair. Metal is fairly nice with a patina and there is slight pitting, maybe 50%+/- bluing left. The bolt works smoothly and there are no rattles. It even came with a original 1917 bayonet that looks refinished and it has been sharpened, no scabbard.

I will take some time in the next week or two to de-stock her, do some clean up and then out to the range to see how she shoots. Fits right in with my SC 1903A3 and my SA M1. Now I need to trade for a M1 carbine or a K98k.
