Remington Mo. 121 smooth-bores

merrbarb
I am interested in smooth bore rifles (.22 cal.) and am familiar with the 5 variations ofa the Winchester Mo. 61s (I own a pre-war Win. Counter-bore). I have recently purchased a Rem. Mo. 121 Mo-Skeet-o Bore and have been offered several more. What are the different variations of the Mo. 121? I understand there were 4?? I also have heard that the Mo-Skeet-o bore rifle was not a catalog item but special order only. Is this true?? The Mo-Skeet-o bore seems to be a Routledge bore but without the Routledge inscription on the barrel.

    I'm doing this from memory, so some of you guys cut me some slack. There were three different smoothbores.

    There is a Routledge that was a special order. The Mo-Skeet-O falls in this slot. 121A's

    Standard smooth bore. 121SB

    Loewi bore that was opened up for skeet. 121 Skeet? (skeetrap) Rifle

    Remington marked rifles as Rouledge and as Mo-Skeet-O. They were the same bore. The Mo was sold over the counter, where as Rout was a special order from the factory. Quanities of which ones were produced is a question. Maybe Roy Marcot will answer a bunch of questions that Remington 22 collectors have when his new book comes out soon.

    The 121S is a 22 Remington Special (W.R.F.) and not a smooth bore.

    This is my edit. After checking my list I don't have a Mo-Skeet-O in my collection. If you get more send me an e-mail.
