Remington Nylon 66

Small Arms And Sidearms

The Remington Nylon 66 is a semi-automatic .22 rimfire rifle made by Remington Arms from 1959 to 1989. It was one of the earliest mass-produced rifles to use a stock made from a material other than wood, with its nylon polymer stock and receiver letting it run without added lubricant, a trait that made it especially popular in cold-climate regions.
