| New, Unread Condition, Hard Bound, Out of Print! Limited, only a few available. Large 312 (8"x11") Pages, with many color prints The Official Authorized History of The Remington Arms Company by Roy Marcot. To put it simply, this is a magnificent book about a magnificent firearms company. This is not only the first book with a complete history of the company, but it is the first book to describe every single firearm model Remington has ever produced. And its photographic coverage of the company and its products is also magnificent. If you think the adjective magnificent is overworked, wait until you see this book. Since the 1840s, the company found by Eliphet Remington has been designing and manufacturing quality firearms for civilian and military use in the United States and around the world. The company's history is so long and involved that few authors have dared tackle the subject. Roy Marcot, well known to firearms scholars and collectors as the author of "Spencer Repeating Firearms" and "Civil War Chief of Sharpshooters, Hiram Berdan," was granted carte- blanche to the Remington archives. Marcot is noted for his fine scholarship and it shows throughout the 312 pages. "Remington " America's Oldest Gunmaker begins with the first barrels manufactured by the company's founder, Eliphet Remington, in the 1840s and continues for 300+ pages through the latest model to roll off the production line. Every model of rifle, shotgun or handgun manufactured to 1998 is listed and described in terms of outstanding features, markings and other means of identifications. Production records and serial number data are provided and all are beautifully photographed. Want to read about every firearm manufactured by Remington for the Union during the civil War; every semiautomatic shotgun produced, every variation of the Model 700 including the U.S Army's M24 Sniper Rifle or the USMC's M40A2 Sniper Rifle? Its all here. Seldom has a more complete book on a company's total output spanning more than 150 years ever been described in such detail in a single volume. Mr. Marcot is the editor of the Remington Society of America's magazine and is an active collector of Remington's products. During the more than two years he spent writing this book, he had the help of many of the country's most renowned Remington collectors and the resources of the Cody Firearms Museum at the Buffalo Bill Center in Cody Wyoming. In addition, the Remington company opened all of their files to him for research, including current manufacturing and production files. Few author's have had such unprecedented access to original source materials for their research. *Remington *America's Oldest Gunmaker* The Official Authorized History of the Remington Arms Company |
