This is a 1914 Remington Model 16 semi-automatic auto loading .22 Cal (5.6mm) rimfire Remington cartridge. This is a collector rifle, firing the Unique .22 Remington cartridge. The .22 Remington Automatic was a .22 caliber (5.6mm) rimfire round developed in 1915 for the Remington Model 16 rifle only—no other guns were ever chambered for the cartridge. The .22 Remington Auto fired a 45 grain bullet approximately 950 feet per second, with 90 lb. ft. of muzzle energy. Due to the larger diameter of the case, the cartridge is not interchangeable with the .22 Short, Long, or Long Rifle. The rifle is marked, “Remington Arms - Union Metallic Cartridge Co. - Remington Works, Ilion, NY. USA PAT'D Mar., 10. 1914”; it is also marked behind the rear sight aperture, “Remington .22 Autoloading.” The rifle shows a walnut fore grip and butt stock where the auto loading tube is featured and holds a total of 16 rounds with one in the chamber. The rifle’s action is jammed, but easily dissembles and shows a clean bore for its age with a little darkness to the grooves. It is serial number: RB3441 and is marked just behind the trigger guard, under the fore grip, and on the face of the lower receiver just before the bolt housing. The rifle qualifies as a Curio & Relic firearm and requires FFL Transfer or NICS Background Check.
