What’s Included
- Remington Model 514 Standard single-shot bolt-action rifle
Produced in an era before serial numbering was required, this Model 514 bears no serial number, confirming its manufacture prior to 1968. An estimated 757,000–780,000 Model 514 rifles were built, and examples like this one remain popular for their straightforward operation and reliable rimfire accuracy.
The 24.75 inch carbon-steel barrel is paired with a dovetailed blade front sight and a barrel-mounted open rear leaf sight, providing a traditional sight picture familiar to many rimfire shooters. The single-shot trough feed accepts .22 Short, .22 Long, and .22 Long Rifle cartridges, making it versatile for plinking, training, or small-game use.
A hardwood pistol-grip stock with a 13.5 inch length of pull offers comfortable shouldering, while the blued finish on both barrel and receiver helps resist the elements. The manual wing safety, located at the rear of the bolt, gives the shooter a positive, tactile safety control.
As Remington’s last large-scale single-shot rimfire, the Model 514 Standard holds a distinctive place in the company’s history. Its combination of classic styling, robust build, and easy handling continues to attract enthusiasts looking for a straightforward rimfire rifle with genuine period character.
