I keep hearing conflicting reports, remington is going to make them, then they aren't going to. If they do make them again, probably won't be cheap...

I thought the insanity had ended. Guess not? CarbineI was at a gun show this past weekend. There were 6-8 7600/760s, all in common calibers. The least expensive was $1875 and was bubba'd/painted and beat. The most was a 308 carbine and the asking price was $3700. No way.

I guess I should be buying the ones for 6-7 hundred but I have no use for more deer rifles. My dads 270 pump from 1954 kills em effectively. Edk

There is n secrete to any action in killing game. The whole deal rest's on the shoulder of the shooter. What the shooter should be doing is using a rifle he is familar with and trust's absolutely! with that he should be able to place the bullet where it needs to go.

They say everything happens for a reason. For me that reason is usually because I've made some bad decisions that I need to pay for.

Had a model 6 back in the day. F'ed up and sold it for something bright and shiny. Missouri's deer herd has recovered enough. We're back in business

I got $800 for it but it wasn’t a carbine!! Just regular old 760, 22” barrel.
I showed him the crack too.
Can you believe that?
If he didn’t buy it I was going to lost here for a lot less.

That's a nice aftermarket stock on that carbine. I wonder if it was a one off or production? Beautiful either way.

I don't have any history on it but it appears to have been made in 1960. It's in great shape other than a few of the usual dents & scratches from hunting. It'll probably have one or two more before I'm done hunting with it. The price of guns is crazy, if I didn't have something to trade I probably wouldn't have bought it even though it was pretty reasonable.
