While I know these are not pre 1898 I thought they would be appreciated here .
The top Model 8 Semi auto in 30 Rem is the latest find thanks to the Outdoorsman and a super deal was made pitty someone messed with the but plate.A great addition to the Remington model 14 pump in 30Rem that I now own and came by a long time friend of my Dads so a pair of 30's for your inspection.Anybody with info on these please chime in

Hi Dez,
Have a look here:

I found it to be a pretty good site when I had questions. There are also some good disassembly videos on YouTube. These guns are a little more complex than you might think.

Thanks very good link.Yeh had it stripped down last night had to find a exploded view on the net to put it back together LOL!

Your model 14 looks like an 18.5 inch carbine. Nice little rifle, looks to be in decent condition.

Yes its the carbine and in good condition I always loved the look of it when I was a kid and my Dads friend used to come and hunt with us I had a chance to buy it so I did although its not the most accurate beast but it is fun to shoot.

Here is a great link for disassembly/reassembly. It is essential for anyone that has one of these to completely strip this gun down to the last screw with confidence!
