Nylon 66 Collection

[JCooperfan1911]

Just received my 1959 1st year Nylon 66 .22 rimfire Remington rifle (top)



This makes three. The others are a pristine 1973 in unfired condition (mid), and a 1969 that is a regular shooter (bottom). My all time favorite plinkers. One of the finest rimfire semis yet.

Cool. A LGD just auctioned a Seneca Green Nylon 66 and it only brought about $350. I would have bid on it but for having just got a Mohawk Brown one last month.

When I was a kid my uncle had a black one. I'll never forget the day he gave me a sock full of 22 LR and told me to go to the trash pit and have fun. I located and purchased a brown one of my own several years ago.

Hmm, a Green, Brown, and Black would be an interesting combo, too.

The more uncommon colors are incredibly collectible now and bring a ton of money. I'd love them though!

The Black Diamond comes to mind.

My Dad uses a Mohawk Brown version as a single-shot using Super Colibri as a bunny reducer in his garden. (He initially used CB caps)

Ol’ Mr. Mac Gregor would be proud, Dad has ended the nibbling careers of hundreds and hundreds of them with his Nylon 66 over the decades.

Stay safe.
