This Remington Model 121 Fieldmaster was manufactured in 1953 and is chambered in .22 LR.
It retains the majority of its factory blue, the bore is mirror bright and the rifle is
mechanically excellent. A Weaver B4 scope is mounted, on a mount attached to the receiver.
The optic has yellowed and gone slightly hazy with age, though the reticle remains sharp
and legible.
The Model 121 Fieldmaster was Remington’s slide action rimfire, designed by C. C. Loomis
and G. H. Garrison and built from 1936 until 1954, by which point approximately 199,891
had been made across serial numbers 00001 to 201000. It feeds from a tubular magazine
beneath the barrel holding between fourteen and twenty rounds depending on the cartridge,
and the type was chambered for .22 Short, .22 Long and .22 Long Rifle, with .22 WRF
reserved for the Special Grade and .22 Long Rifle shot cartridges for the Smooth Bore.
Remington offered the rifle in a range of grades and variations, among them the 121A
Standard, 121S Special Grade, 121D Peerless, 121E Expert and 121F Premier, along with
Smooth Bore, Mo-Skeet-O, Routledge Bore and Skeetrap versions. The Model 572 Fieldmaster
replaced it in 1955.
