My best is a Marlin 39A from 1956. The older Remington 500 series rifles can still be found at attractive prices. Here's a couple of pics of the Marlin 39A and the Remington 512x from 1965 and had the sights on backward which I corrected...they are backward on the pic. Rich.
The rear sight on the Remington 512x is the exact sight that is used on the Remington Nylons 10, 11, and 12, which are bolt-actions also. These sights are in high demand. In order to affix a low-mount scope to any of these rifles, it's necessary to remove the rear sight for clearance purposes. Often the sight is then mislaid and lost forever - so replacements are very dear.

Those interested in viewing these rare Remington Nylon bolt actions might like to see my photos of them in the Pictures and Albums section of this forum:
