What’s Included
- Remington No. 4 Rolling Block Takedown single-shot rifle (.22 Short or Long)
Built on Remington’s rolling block action, this takedown variant features an external hammer and knurled spurs on both the hammer and breechblock. The 22.5-inch full-octagon barrel gives the rifle a classic profile and period-correct handling.
Factory markings are clear and well-presented. The barrel address reads "REMINGTON ARMS–UNION METALLIC CARTRIDGE CO., REMINGTON WORKS, ILION, NEW YORK, U.S.A." The top flat is marked "Remington TRADE MARK."
Chambered for .22 Short or Long, this single-shot rifle has a capacity of one. Sighting is straightforward with a front blade in a dovetail and a rear notch on an elevator base, consistent with original configuration.
The straight-grip walnut stock pairs with a steel buttplate, and the slim walnut forearm is retained by a single screw. Length of pull is 13.0, and overall construction reflects its United States manufacture and period design.
