Gosh you are, just drove thru couple of min ago coming up fro SA today. Got another fella from Leon Springs I think???, he is an airline pilot for SW, but he is not on much...
CMP marked these rifles down from $600 to $400, due to alleged rust found on some. They are completely sold out now.
No rust found anywhere on this one, disassembled down to the bolt internals.
Front/rear apertures were included, and they are very good, but I wanted to see how she would do with glass, too.

No, the Model 37 was Remington's effort to compete with the Winchester Model 52 and 75, which had pretty much cornered the market for civilian .22 target rifles.
The army's .22 training rifle in the 1930s was the Springfield M2, designed to resemble the weight, balance, bolt action, and fit/finish of the M1903 Springfield .30-06. Here's mine. BTW: Unique feature of this particular rifle, the s/n matches the year of production: 1933. ...Figure those odds.
