  • Welcome to our little farm in Tennessee. Come enjoy life with us!
    Today's video is a Show and Tell review and range time with a 1936 Remington "The Sportmaster" model 341-P Target .22. I'll go over it with some detail and then take it out to the range. This will be the first video where I use two cameras to simultaneously film the bench and the target during target practice so you can see the hits in real time.
    Enjoy. This particular Remington is something you don't get to see very often. The 341-P was an updated Model 34 with Target Sights and other upgrades.

    I thought the firing pin was broken on my 341. But it just needed to be cleaned and oiled. I didn't know anything about this gun when I bought it at a gun show 25 years ago. But it looked like a good dead at $125, so I got it.

    My younger brother has the 341-P with scope that Dad left to him. His has a sling and is in excellent condition!

      I had a person donate an original scope but I’m still looking for a mount.

    Mine was great great grandparents just the standard dovetail sights . It’s got patina / rust build up but it shoots like new .

      It is a good shooter. Dated for sure but the gun simply works and shoots.

    Great review. Good job on the sight. I love the mechanism on this rifle.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s a interesting one. I like how it locks and lifts and inserts the round. I noticed the benefit of this type of mechanism is the lack of bullet deformation. This is good on a target rifle.

    I was shooting mine today. I had no idea I had such a gem worth that much, a friend of mine gave it to me for borrowing him money for a down payment on a truck he was buying years back. Mine still has the original rear peep with the nut on the side actually being another size peep to swap out to the other. The front sight on mine is a pillar if that makes sense. The top of the pillar is a little defined as a bead to the front sight.i pulled out some shooting bags and wanted to see how tight i could get a group. Out of 3 five shot groups my first was the smallest being 1.25” at about 50yds! the others were about 1.5” I quite surprised myself. Very cool old target rifle! Very nice work on the rear sight reproduction!

      The ones I price checked started around $250-275 for rough condition and upward of $375 for nice ones. The rear sight alone was roughly half the price of the rifle or a little more.

      @@SmithFarmandOutdoorsjust got a near new one for 200 bucks! The dropped it once or something and unknowingly scratched up the barrel a little.. so it rusted a tadddd but nothing bad at all (that I can’t take care of). This is something I hope to have around for a long time, I love older firearms.

    Cool gun! Thanks for showing it. I like the shape of the bolt handle.

    I inherited my grandfathers 1937 September build 341P back in 2005. Tac Driver. I need to shoot it more. Steel and wood. Loads like a battleship.

    I have this very rifle. Love it!

    I have one also and it is in pretty good shape as original. It has been shot very little in the last 50yrs other than a couple of garden pirate ground hogs. A fellow worker all but begged me buy it for $20 in about 1970. Guess i got my moneys worth. Love the peep sight and too bad newer guns dont come with them

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you bought that for $20, that’s amazing. It is an interesting and well built rifle. I’m about to 3D print a new front sight. The only one I have is the round one that covers up the target. That’s the only thing I don’t like about it. I was also recently gifted a scope and mounts but the mounts don’t fit the rifle. Still looking for the original mounts.

    I've been looking for one of these to go along with my model 34 which is the same basic rifle with the exception of the safety and the peep sight . They are very accurate rifles and that lifting mechanism is the main reason as the bullet goes in the chamber without touching any feed ramp so no damage to the projectile .

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  ปีที่แล้ว

      You’re correct. Start with good match grade ammo and you’re set for a good shooting experience.

    Got mine on layaway at my favorite pawnshop,made a payment today ,can’t wait to shoot it,it’s the 341 without the (p) or peep sight.I’m a disabled veteran so I have to wait for the beginning of the to get payed again.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It is a decent shooting rifle. The tube feed is ok. You can shoot shorts, Longs or Long Rifles out of it. I think it holds over twenty 22 shorts. The lift mechanism that loads the rounds works great.

  • @sergeant061
    @sergeant061 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Nice Rifle, but you shouldn't dry fire a 22 rimfire.

  • @elliotmann8882
    @elliotmann8882 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Mine is the 341, no letter 'P'. And it has a Lyman scope mounted on it.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mostly the same rifle except for configuration. Interchangeable parts

  • @hankhardisty9433
    @hankhardisty9433 ปีที่แล้ว

    I’ve got the model 34 and would sure like a set of peep sights!

  • @nicholasstilley2370
    @nicholasstilley2370 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I thought mine didn't have a serial number but it looks like it is on the lower part of the barrel just in front of where the stock ends I've had mine for some time and only just found it

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It appears that you are correct. Mine has a number also. It’s a 6 digit number that begins with 148xxx

    Cool old gun Bro

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks. It’s kinda cool. 84 years old and still shoots great. It is aged quite a bit but I decided not to mess with the blueing or wood stock. I just cleaned it up, lubed it, made the missing parts and shoot it. The sights are set a bit low as shown in the video but that’s an easy fix. I had originally shot it at 25 yards or so. Can’t remember exactly.

  • @icallbs4613

    Using standard velocity ammo though a scope my old 341 will put 5 covered by a nickel at 75 yards

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have not grouped this one yet. From what I can see, it will be very accurate.

  • @schutendohkji548

    Glad u've maintained the iron sights. Too many rifles now a dayz come w/o them
    and they look bare n awful. Peeps r great in the wooded, quicker shooting than a
    scope. Yah, the apertures, the frnt n bk s/b exchanged based on the ambient
    light conditions. For the bright day long range shootings, smaller is better esp.
    for accuracy. I dink the apertures were of American invention, was very effective
    during the WWII. More reliable (don't fog, mo resilient against dinging, etc). Thx 4
    the video.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I have a 3D printer now. I was going to create a set of factory front apertures but I found a set someone else has already designed. All I’ve got to do is print them. I think I’d prefer a simple sight post instead of the circle.

    With that complicated lifting mechanism how do yo remove and replace the bolt

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is enough room below the sight to slide the bolt out

  • @elliotmann8882
    @elliotmann8882 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I also have this gun, but mine needs a new firing pin. I guess a gunsmith can replace it.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Look up gun parts corporation “Numrich”. They will probably have the part. The firing pin should be for several different similar models.

    • @SmithFarmandOutdoors
      @SmithFarmandOutdoors  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Numrich does have the part. It costs $49.68. Product number 72370, part key 325. Free shipping.
