OK, so just what is it ?

[REM1917]

I posted about how / if I should put a finish on the stock of my Remington. So far "don't touch it is in the lead" lol. Anyway, I am at a loss as to what to call it, from a technical standpoint. Going through the identification quizzes online doesn't get me anywhere but a model 91, nothing about the Finns.

Here's what I know off the top of my head:

Remington
1917
longer than my 91/30's by a few inches (I'm not near a tape measure)
Has a Finnish stock with the more rounded splice.


Can get more crappy pics if needed. Will post markings, numbers also.

Thanks for all the help.

Does it have the Finnish pine tar finish on it now? If so, "Don't touch it".

If it has a Remington marked barrel and fits into the stock in the pictures than it's a Remington made M91 that ended up in Finland and had the original stock replaced during refurbishment by the Finn's.

That is a Finnish replacement stock .I would leave it alone.

It's what some people refer to as a Finned M91. As said it's a US made Remington M91 rifle that ended up in Finland.
