Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
In 1936, Remington dropped the Model 8 and introduced the Model 81 Woodsmaster with improvements by C.C. Loomis. The Model 81 was offered in .300 Savage, and the .25 Remington chambering was dropped after a limited number of 81s were chambered in this round. It was additionally offered in Standard (81A), Special (81B), Peerless (81D), Expert (81E), and Premier (81F) grades. Production of the Model 81 ceased in 1950.
During the onset of WWII, Remington must have had difficulty acquiring English walnut from Europe because by 1940 the Model 81C was redubbed the Model 81B. This change meant the Special Grade was now delivered with a 20 lines-per-inch hand checkered stock and forearm of select American walnut, the new flat-side forearm, and a stock without wrist cheeks. In addition, Remington began marking the left side of the receiver 81-B. Because these rifles were built to order; Remington did not use any special receivers. The B marking was hand stamped so it will be a different point size than the receiver’s roll stampings. It may be slightly crooked, it may look out of place, but that’s just the way they were done.
