Hello all,
New to the forum and look forward to a lot of reading. I have just been given a Rem. 550-1 from my mom. I thank it came from my dad's side ( he's dead and mom doesn't remember). I do remember shooting it when I was a kid.
I sent the patent # to Remington hoping to find out how old it is.
Anyway, does anyone know how to take this thing apart and cleen it and how does it compare to todays .22's? Also it has a ejection deflector on it. I like it being left handed, however it is as old as the gun, so I know it was not put on for me. Did these rifles come deflectors or is there a left handed relative I don't know about?
Thanks
