Researcher Sidelock Joined: Jan 2002 Posts: 5,945 Likes: 144 WA/AK	I doubt anyone left alive really knows what the markings on the bottom of the barrels of Remington doubles mean. Sometimes, as in the case of this gun the R might mean Remington Steel barrels and the E might mean ejectors. X K E A1 on a 1909 vintage KE-Grade 16-gauge -- We can guess that K is the grade, E for ejectors and it appears that X is common to 16-gauge guns. What does the A1 mean? /// K E Y on a 1906 vintage KE-Grade 12-gauge -- Again K could be the grade and E mean ejectors, but what does the Y mean? /// F E G 13 on a 1906 vintage 12-gauge FE-Grade Trap Gun -- What does the G mean? What does the 13 mean? /// M on a 1906 vintage 12-gauge CEO-Grade -- What does the M mean? If the O on the gun below means Ordnance Steel barrels, why no O here? Why no E for ejectors? X O on a 1905 vintage 16-gauge DEO-Grade -- Again, the X seems to mean 16-gauge and the O could mean Ordnance Steel barrels. Why no E for ejectors? P A on a 1896 vintage 12-gauge AE-grade -- A could be the grade, but why no E for the ejectors? What does the P mean? B J E on a 1895 vintage 12-gauge BE-Grade -- B could be the grade, E could be the ejectors and the J could be the barrel material as the Remington Damascus salesman's sample lists these barrels as Chain J. What does /// mean?

Cameron Sidelock Joined: Dec 2004 Posts: 997 Likes: 7 Post Falls, ID	A friend called me up at work today and said he was inspecting a 1900 16 ga, for possible purchase/trade and wanted me to look it over. I should have taken some photos of the lettering and numbers on it with my I-phone. It had the number 19 in the same sequence of letters and number that you show Researcher in the photo of the FE. It was also a pre-1906 gun. I surmised, probably wrongly, on some of the lettering, but had no clue on the number. It was an extractor gun with 26" barrels. Not too sure how many 1900's came with 26" barrels, if any. It looked to me as though they may have been cut since they didn't touch, but the gap was very skinny.
