Standard Arms ~ Model G ~ .35 REM

The Standard Arms Model G is a unique American rifle designed by Morris F. Smith, notable for its ability to function as both a semi-automatic and a pump-action rifle. It operates using a long stroke gas piston and features a .35 Remington caliber with a five round magazine. The rifle is fed by a 5 round magazine that is loaded by opening the floorplate and dropping cartridges in the bottom. The pump is an ornate bronze handle on the forearm. The gas system can be turned off with a valve near the muzzle and the rifle can then be operated as a pump. These were somewhat of an oddity in the firearms world and only about 2700 were produced by Standard Arms. This example is still in good shape and these rifles are often overlooked by collectors.
