Description:
REMINGTON ARMS Model 8 5-Shot SEMI-AUTOMATIC .35 Remington Auto RIFLE C&R 

First Commercialized Autoloader Offered in the U.S.

Here we present a C&R Remington Model 8 Semi-Automatic Rifle, manufactured between 1911 through 1936. The Remington Model 8 is a semi-automatic rifle designed by John Browning and produced by Remington Arms, introduced as the Remington Autoloading Rifle in 1905, though the name was changed to the Remington Model 8 in 1911. The Remington Model 8 has a fixed 5-shot magazine and bolt hold-open device which engages after the magazine is empty. It is a take-down design, meaning that the barrel and receiver are easily separated with no tools, allowing for a smaller package for transport.

This example is chambered in .35 Remington. The .35 Remington is the only cartridge from Remington's lineup of medium-power rimless cartridges still in commercial production. Introduced in 1906, it was originally chambered for this Remington Model 8 semi-automatic rifle in 1908, which between 1905 and 1911 was known as the “Remington Autoloading Rifle”.

Remington created four new calibers for the Model 8 rifle: .25 Remington, .30 Remington, .32 Remington and .35 Remington. These cartridges were rimless designs to allow reliable feeding from box magazines. The Model 8 was offered in five grades of finish (Standard, Special, Peerless, Expert and Premier) and was the first truly reliable high power semiautomatic rifle ever commercialized and offered for civilian sale in the United States.

The overall condition is near fine. Original finish. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The stock shows very light use and remains solid.
