Identifying a probable Remington Action?

Sorry guys I thought it checked the box at the top when someone commented on a post so I didn’t have any idea so many people commented, I appreciate the info the scope mount extension explains the threads. I just couldn’t get past those.

Highly suggest you see a competent gunsmith to make sure headspace etc. is correct. I do smith work and I question what I see at front of receiver. The barrel doesn’t look right where it fits up to receiver.

No prob bud that’s just a 100xp barrel I lightly screwed in to keep it compare the threads lol. I def wouldn’t recommend shooting it.

This is what your action would look like if it had the scope mount extension threaded on. It's been 35 or 40 years since I've seen one of those, so I don't remember the specifics of all the different models. I remember there was a Model 1, and I think a 1A. I think there were another couple of actions in the lineup as well, but can't recall their specs. I know there was a Model 4 that was used for the early unlimited bag guns that mostly wore wood stocks and Unertl, Lyman or possibly a Remington (rare) externally adjusted scopes. Ring spacing necessitated the extended portion of the action. They were nice actions in their time and will likely do some quality work for you today.

Beautiful rifle, I’m planning on reviving this one. The older I get the more I want the older stuff.
