Remington model 25 question

[opso]

Can anyone tell me if a model 25R pump rifle was marked with an R behind the "Model 25" on the receiver? It's a 32-20 if that matters. Thanks, Tom

Whether an early one, with the Model 25 on the barrel, or a late one, with Model 25 on the side, they were simply marked Model 25. The "R" was not used.......tom

Thanks for the information Tom. I just bought one, and it simply has Model 25 on the receiver. It is in the last 1000 of them made. I feel better knowing that they didn't have that R on them. I was worried that mine might have been a converted rifle. Tom
