If you must have a Rem. semi auto , you should probably go with a later model , like the 7400 or 750 . These are still in prodoction , and parts are available for them should something break . The last 742 was produced 32 years ago and the parts inventory for them was exhausted about 20 years ago . If you are still interested in the 742 , I'd advise taking it to a gunsmith first for an inspection , to make sure you aren't buying a Tomato stake . I am in the gun business and I won't buy or sell or take in trade a 740 or 742 !
