It's a bold strategy, Cotton. Let's see if it pays off for 'em.

I did a search of Reminton frames and found them mentioned on several forums.

In my reading, the people who have ridden them speak appreciatively of them in all regards.

How about a detail picture of the lug work?

I'd like to see it.

The guy who built them is dead. he had a fascination with guns, hence the name and the bullet lug style on some of his frames. the detail you could order from him exceeds most other njs frame builders. I want to say he learned from nagasawa but my mind is shaky on that detail.
