At times people ask about Remington Model 81 semi-autos, Remington Model 14 pumps and Winchester pump and semi-auto rifles of the era. This is a Townsend Whelen book that is available free for those interested on the archive.org site (a great book resource).

Enjoy the book and the site.

Wow, great find targshooter. I'd love to read the Colonel's take in his own words rather than read what has been written on the internet.

That is a neat site.  I enjoy the old writers and their precise style.  Thanks for posting.

Outstanding resource! Thanks!
