Remington 788 Carbine

In 1980 you could take your $160 out the door.

Equal to $750 - $800 today

I always keep an eye open for 788 in .243 at gunshows. People keep 788's in family. I know a family who has 4 generations killing deer with a 788 in 3030

I had the 788 in both 22-250 and .308. Amazing accuracy with the stock 4x Tasco scope. I think they ended up having some type of recall with the safety or bolt. I regret ever getting rid of mine for a fancier rifle. They were both carbines and tackdrivers.

This has been interesting reading everyone’s thoughts.

Has anyone seen one in the 3030 lately?

Every time I open my safe I see one.
