[Baby Tran Cat]

Started in the 50's. Call the Remington 800 service number, go through the menu till you get to records dept. They will look up your model and when it was made.

don't set your goals too high. You could probably sell it for $300 if you find the right buyer. A gun from that era doesn't like the steel loads of today.

I have one almost identical given to me by my father for Christmas in 1968. That gun sold new then for around $90.00. In top condition you might be able to get $400.00 or so for it. It will shoot steel loads just fine, no problem. I still hunt occasionally with mine........been chasing birds for 42 years with it.
