*SOLD* 1950 Remington 121 Fieldmaster .22S/L/LR 24" *CLASSIC PUMP ACTION*
Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Fieldmaster 121 series is a .22 caliber, slide-action, tubular magazine-fed rifle manufactured by Remington Arms between 1936 and 1954. The Sportmaster 121 has a 25" barrel, a one-piece hardwood stock, and a blued metal finish. It was replaced by the Model 572 Fieldmaster in 1955. In 1908, Remington wanted something to compete with Winchester's famed Model 94, but the faster, smoother operation of a pump gun had a lot of advantages. John Pedersen, the inventor of the Pedersen device used on rifles in WWI, had already designed several Remington shotguns. He was given the assignment to design a high-power pump-action rifle to compete with Winchester's lever actions. He started with the Model 12 rimfire in 1909 and designed its big brother, the Model 14 in 1912. The Model 12 and 14 rifles were butter smooth with a magazine tube that moved with the slide. The Model 121 is the improved replacement of the Model 12.
