[quote=MagMarc]7600 270 -------------------------------- Hey Marc - that's the nicest looking 7600 that I have ever seen. I have heard about them & at first I doubted it. They sure have 'some' of the distinctive features of the M Six. " I " have not seen the 7600 with straight line cut checkering. I also like the ergos of the forend and thin dia of the pistol grip. Does it have the cartridge head embedded in the receiver ? This Six is in 30-06, I call it my 6 06. grin Good Score Jerry ps: I see you found a Model Six too.

Hey Jerry, This 7600 looks like a Six without the cartridge head or cheek piece. It handles great.

I have used and still use Weaver pivot bases/rings on at least 20+ rifles and 3" slugguns over the last 30+ years. NEVER had the slightest problem with them. Use a quality scope with them--NO worries. Hey Paul...I might have one laying around here. If I can find it, I’ll send it your way. My grandpa had it on the 740 my uncle gave me. Excellent. I have a, new to me, old 760 in .308w that would love to wear it. THANK YOU! Hey Paul....guess what I found? Awesome!

Grab it Paul. If not, I'm going to offer him some money for it. Again, only if you don't want it. Be Well, Rustyzipper.

I recently picked up a real clean model six 30-06 at a gun show, the gun shop selling it didn’t know much about saying as he was loading his truck to go the show a guy pulled in wanted to sell six guns so he bought them and through them in the truck. Anyway it appears to have been shot very little , it has a 18.5 inch barrel and everything I have seen said they only came in 22” barrels? Has anyone ever seen one in 18.5 from the factory? The rifle also has a recoil pad that looks factory but most I can find pictures of have a butt plate. Could the gun have been ordered like this or do you think someone had it shortened and added the recoil pad ?

I believe Remington made some carbine models of their pump rifles. Look it up in a gun values book.

They were made with standard 22 inch barrels and they also made carbine models with 18 & 1/2 in barrels. I have a 760 pump with an 18 & 1/2 inch barrel bought brand new in 1979. Some people have shortened the 22 inch barrels, but as far as I know, the 18 & 1/2 inch carbine models from the factory all had "Carbine" stamped on the barrel. I could be wrong, but as far as I know, no 760, model 6 or 7600 ever came from the factory with a recoil pad on it.

No carbine stamped on the barrel, I believe it’s a first year model six. I look in the gun value book good idea thanks.

Those Remington pumps are big favorites in the woods of New England. The Benoit boys use them, and favor the carbine models. My brother-in-law in Vermont has one, too.

The Benoits were my childhood hero’s thirty plus years ago ,some people liked sports teams or bands I idolized the Benoits . When I saw this rifle on the table I knew I had to have it , now I need some green plaid wool .....

I have some M Sixes but no expert. I’ve never seen 1 nor pix of M Sixes with recoil pads from factory.
I’m not familiar w/Sixes in Carbine BUT I’m not a Carbine fan.
If it’s a Six and you are happy that’s all that matters. Good luck.

I just off 'Google'.
Model Six were produced 81-87...... I thot it was '90.
They did NOT list any carbine models.
There were several pix and NONE had recoil pads.
That's the best I can do.

Got me a few Remington pumps. Probably the biggest doe I've ever killed. That's a 22" Whelen. 225gr Accubond exit from a 75ish yard shot. Like most deer I've shot with that rifle, it was like a lightning bolt hit. That whelen is crazy accurate when I can tolerate the recoil. I've shot several groups well under MOA. Have a matching style in 280 and a Whelen Carbine. The carbine I setup with a WGRS and a straight comb walnut stock. My favorite was a 308 BDL. That sucker was stupid accurate and super comfortable. My buddy absolutely had to have it and I needed money and didn't use it much.
