Thanks, guys!
I have an aftermarket 10 round for the Winchester. It is stainless.
Cat9x, great looking rifles. I've only seen 1 large capacity magazine equipped Remington model 8/81...at Peterson's in Albuquerque in 2009...I think they had sold it for about 2K, maybe 4 times what a standard 81 in similar condition was worth.
What can you tell us about yours?
Leon, there is a lot of controversy over which gun Frank Hamer used in the Bonnie and Clyde shootout. One rifle, a Remington 81 with an extended magazine, identified by Hamer's son as the one used by his father at the shootout is clearly not the one used by Hamer because it is a Remington 81 Police model that was not made until several years after the shootout.
Nice collection. You need to get a 10 round mag. for that 07.

A Model 8 in .35 Remington with an extended magazine was the rifle used by Frank Hamer to kill Bonnie & Clyde, along with lots more shots fired from rifles and shotguns used by posse members.
