The solid-frame configuration is correct for this example, with no takedown lever or knurled screw. It uses the classic Remington rolling-block system with a rotating breechblock and an external hammer, and it features an automatic extractor. Capacity is one round.
The 26-inch octagon steel barrel has a flat crown. The top flat is marked "E. REMINGTON & SONS, ILION, N.Y." and the caliber "32" is stamped on the barrel flat near the fore-end. Sighting equipment includes a dovetailed blade front sight and an adjustable rear leaf with a stepped elevator.
Stock furniture is walnut with a straight grip and a long, slim fore-end capped by a steel tip. The fore-end is retained by a screw, and the butt is finished with a crescent steel buttplate. Length of pull measures 13.0 inches.
The receiver is steel, and the rifle is small-frame, made in the United States. A serial number is located on the lower tang plate for identification. This configuration and feature set align with the collectible appeal of Remington’s No. 4 Rolling Block in .32 Short Rimfire.
