Not the deal of the Century, but I've always liked the model 10 & you just don't see these everyday.
Ran the serial # when I got it home, and I figure 58,8XX is vintage 1912 or early 1913. I also feel that's correct because later models I've seen have the Remington UMC logo on the top & buttstock.. Remington & UMC merged in 1912. Remington made the model 10 from 1908-1929 with 275,600 made.
Everything looks nice, bluing is starting to develop a nice patina but is still looking good, The wood has no cracks in it save for a chip in the slide. Looks like the wood was re-done at some time but the buttstock is still in very nice shape. Too many of these had been either been replaced or broken. Bonus for me.
Time to take it down, clean it well & inspect & take it to the range with some mild loads.
Also, If anyone has any further information on model 10's I would be grateful for that.
Here's some pics...
