Manufacturer: Remington Type: Rifle Model: Nylon 66 Caliber: .22LR Barrel Length: 19.5" Optics: N/A ATF Form 4473 Required: Yes Log: 2571 S/N: 2102234 Notes: The Remington Nylon 66 is a lightweight, semi-automatic rifle renowned for its durability and reliability. Manufactured between 1959 and 1989, it was one of the first mass-produced firearms to feature a synthetic stock, utilizing Remington’s proprietary “Zytel” nylon for strength and reduced weight. This model became a favorite among small-game hunters and recreational shooters due to its low maintenance requirements and excellent handling characteristics. Chambered in .22 Long Rifle, the Nylon 66 operates with a simple blowback action, providing a smooth and consistent cycling of rounds. It features an internal 14-round tubular magazine housed in the stock, loaded through the buttplate. Weighing approximately 4 pounds, the rifle is exceptionally lightweight, making it ideal for extended use in the field. The 19.5-inch steel barrel contributes to solid accuracy, complemented by factory iron sights consisting of a front blade and an adjustable rear sight. With a muzzle velocity of approximately 1,250 feet per second (fps) when using standard .22 LR ammunition, the Nylon 66 delivers effective performance for target shooting and small-game hunting. The rifle’s durability and resistance to harsh environments helped cement its reputation as a groundbreaking firearm during its production run. This example, bearing serial number 2102234, was manufactured in 1968. It is in fair condition, exhibiting rust spots on the metal surfaces and a partially detached front sight. Despite these cosmetic issues, the rifle remains a functional and historically significant firearm, embodying Remington’s innovation in synthetic-stocked firearms.
