Alright here is the info I received over the phone...

Top loading bolt action

Says: "35 Remington" I am assuming that is the caliber

also says: "Browning patent october 16, 1900
July 03, 1902"

Serial# 24XX

Think you can help me out?

Edit: Just figured it out with the patent dates...It's a Remington Model 8, Browning invented and sold the patent to Remington arms in 1900......How do I find date of manufacture and value?

I did find that this model was used by the coppers searching for Bonnie and Clyde. It was modified to take a 15 rd clip/mag
