A M141 in .30 Rem. with a 2.5X Weaver scope was my first deer rifle. My dad bought it, a box of shells, and a gun case for $100. No 10 year old little boy was ever more proud of a present. It killed a lot of whitetails and turkeys among other things and its still in my safe. It's a very fast gun for woods hunting and the .30 Rem is simply a rimmed version of the .30/30 Win.

They don't sell for much now but, like the M8/81 and other old timers they have been replaced for the most part by more modern arms but they are still as capable of putting meat on the table now as they were 75 years ago.
