Your serial number, 19196, would be about then as well. The KP is the date code for the barrel, May 1923. Sounds like you have a Remington Model 17. I do not recall reading that these were ever supplied to the military but one with a short barrel like this one (25 inches to the reciever, 26 inches to the breech face) and Cylinder bore, (not IC) have me wondering.Īny information on these neat bottom eject shotguns would be appreciated, especially anything pertaining the the anchor mark. The pictures below show most of the markings but one in particular which raises more questions than answers is that it appears to have a small anchor under the letters REP which are wrapped in a circle on the right side of the barrell just in front of the reciever. It looks like it was put in a case or a closet a long long time ago and completely forgotten about. I especially like the Cylinder proof barrel. Right away I knew it was a Remington and got real excited when I saw the condition. That all changed last week when I spotted the gem below. I had seen over the years Remington model 10's, 17's and 29's and always wanted one but most if not all of them had been ridden hard and put to bed wet so to speak. I've accumulated several of them in the past in 12,16, and 20 gauge and have always liked the bottom ejection. Being left handed, I've been a lifelong user of side by sides and over/unders, but started out like a lot of lefties with an Ithaca 37. I'm new here but have been a lurker in the past when I needed some Remington information.
