In the interest of posting something different I thought you might enjoy seeing my old Remington 14 1/2. You may be familiar with the old Remington pump action model 14 rifle that was chambered in a number of rifle cartridges like the 25, 30, 32 and 35 remington. Many people don't know that remington wanted a piece of the pistol cartridge market enjoyed by winchester with their 1892 lever action rifle. So remington modified the model 14 to take the rimmed 38-40 and 44-40 cartridges. This one was made in 1914 and holds 11 44-40 cartridges in the tubular magazine.

In my next post I will share some interesting history of this particular rifle.

Would make a very good pig gun in the bigger calibres, be extremely quick to operate; possibly faster than a lever gun!
As to being a mine destroyer - now that would be scary to do!
