O EMINGTON Ideas stand out as conspicuously in the gun-world as the electric locomotive, wireless telegraphy and the aeroplane in the world at large. - For Remington guns lead in modern thought. The Remington Autoloading Shotgun loads itself. The recoil is taken off the shooter's shoulder and used to eject the empty shell, throw a loaded one into place and to cock the gun. You can fire five times by pulling and releasing the trigger for each shot. It is the modern wild fowl gun of the day. The Remington Pump Gun has set a new standard for the popular pump action gun because no other made com bines the three vital improvements : 1 . Solid Breech ; 2. Hammerless ; 3. Loading and ejection of shells at the bot tom. To get a pump gun up to the Remington standard you must get a Remington. Both of these Remingtons shoot nard and close, are fine in -finish and handy to handle. They are Solid Breech, Hammerless, absolutely safe in a class by themselves. If your dealer can't show a 20th CenturyRzmington, write us for catalogue an! literature. THE REMINGTON ARM 5 COMPANY, Kioa. N. Y.
