Remington 510 target master 22

[NOTABIKER]

I am cleaning a 22 single shot 510 rifle for a friend and am having no luck getting proper info on it.
Details
Remington Target Master model 510 22 short 22 long 22 long rifle . only marking is on the left side CD6. the rear of the bolt is what they call a bee hive.

Thanks.
PS the rear butt plate is missing and the trigger guard is not original.People say they are very accurate but even after cleaning and oiling it has a dreadful trigger pull. .

are you sure it's not a 510?

I will look again The stamping is bright and clear. Date looks like it will be
April of 1937. The D means 1937 or later 1983 and i doubt it is that new.

510 NOT 610

Only 63 ever made ( of the 610 Model). Never marketed.

I have one, fun, and a tac driver. the trigger is pretty simple to smooth out, but it's still not the nicest trigger. Mine was made in 63

I forget the particular model numbers (510,511,512???), but they made a single shot, mag fed, and tube fed version. I have the mag fed version and its a good shooter. trigger is good, not great. You can still find parts at http://www.gunpartscorp.com/Manufact.../510-39503.htm

If you polish the inside of the hole in the trigger where the spring and cup insert, it will help with the gritty feeling.

You need to visit the Remington Forum at Rim Fire Central. Lot's of info there.

C is the month of April, the 510 was introduced in 1939, so in this case D is the year of 1957, and the 6 is the assembly number.
The 510 is a single shot, and the only one of the 500 series that had an auto safety, the repeaters didn't have this feature.
Are you sure the safety is completely off when you get the hard trigger pull?

I have a 510 from June of 1945. My Grandfather bought it for my dad when he was 9 years old.

It was the first gun I can remember using. Its a good first gun.

If you need pictures or anything else just PM me.

I have a Rem 512X with the tube feed, my 10th birthday present.

I have a 510 single shot that I really enjoy shooting. The rear sight needed some tweaking because it was shooting left.

With very little work I got mine >3lbs and very clean breaking. I may have a butt plate. Do you want me to look?

I'd like to get one of these. I like a tub fed gun.
