Title: remington 788 6mm question
Post by: ACCUBOND on February 17, 2013, 10:39:58 AM: Ive has this 788 for about 25 years havent shot it much. I have been doing some research on it trying to find out what year it was made. serial# 6000294. The ones on remington website in this number range start with an "a" or "b". Also do you know if these barrels were threaded on or pressed?

Go to a gunparts site like www.gunparts.com (http://www.gunparts.com) (Numrich) and look up the exploded drawings of the gun. You should be able to tell if the barrel is threaded or not... :twocents:
