Ive owned this gun for close to 20 years, I am convinced the gun is in its original condition and has not been restored.

I have an old wooden Remington shell case with that "dog bone" trademark. I wonder when reb87's gun was produced? Might help date my case....Geo

George,
All during the years the Remington Hammerless Doubles were in production, the ammunition company was Union Metallic Cartridge Co. and the arms company was Remington Arms Co. Marcellus Hartley Dodge combined his two companies in 1911 as Remington Arms - Union Metallic Cartridge Co. Then in 1916, to get capital for expansion for war production they incorporated as The Remington Arms Union Metallic Cartridge Co., Inc. In 1920, they found themselves way over expanded so reorganized to spin off excess capacity and debt and formed Remington Arms Co., Inc. and a bit later The Remington Arms Union Metallic Cartridge Co., Inc. was dissolved. So, what is the company name on your ammo crate?

Dave The words Remington UMC appear on either end of the dog-bone. The side of the box is marked Remington Arms Co, Inc...Geo

The red "dog bone" with the circle with Remington UMC at either end and KLEANBORE in the middle was in use from the introduction of KLEANBORE priming on Remington shotshells in 1930-31  By the mid-1930s Remington was working the UMC out of the logo and adding the DuPont logo in.
