Nice looking pistol! I'm not a "pistol smith" - wish I could help you out but someone on this site can probably give you some suggestions. You might want to post over on CassCity as well as it is a "Remmie" site and there are lots of fellas over there that have worked on all makes of Remingtons. Best of luck and you'll get her straightened out. Just remember - pistols are like people - doesn't matter what they look like . . . it's what's on the inside that counts! Safe shooting!
