Remington Nylon 66 made by Remington in October of 1964. It's a super lightweight semi-auto in .22LR, and it proved to be very popular. Honestly, I wasn't planning on covering this one until I saw that Forgotten Weapons was going to put out a video and make it relevant.

A true classic! Never could figure out whether the designer just liked the feed mechanism of the Spencer ... ...or had an epiphany at his colonoscopy.🤔

They are absolutely NOT "nice rifles". They are just waiting for the right chance to shoot your eye out! I'm so sick of you gun nut yayhooz fawning over assault plinkers. Did you know that in 100 years almost 69 people have put their eyes out with assault plinkers? I am working right now with Justin Trudeau, The United Nations and the peace loving leaders of China to come up with a comprehensive law that completely bans assault plinkers and bans the sale of any guns that shoot bullets. Yours truly, Gavin Newsom and ass buddy David Hogg 🤡🤣

@@thefuzzysheep3859 nono, DuPont basically had THE control of the viability of such a product existing (due to their dominance in the field of polymers, and how many patents they held for viable synthetics for the purpose) and it was somewhat through them that this thing came to be. Technically, one could hypothetically have gone and got some custom-made, one off, highly anachronistic full bakelite stock that cracks like a mfer at an earlier time period. But such a hypothetical wasn't really ever practical, especially for a serialized commercial product. This was the first major foray into long arms with synthetics, something that obviously caught on big time. That said, yes, certain pistols and small parts had been made with like grip panels of bakelite or other synthetic resins prior to this, but those were never big, major components, or long arms.

Bakelite was in use on firearms , somewhat earlier. Particularly in Germany.

Back in the 1980s when I was a kid there was a sporting equipment store in our town, which among other things had that rifle in their stock. I remember making many detours by that store after school to see it and handle it because I thought it was one of the coolest things I had ever seen. I know, kids are stupid... One thing though, the vendor had all of his firearms on unlocked shelves and racks to test freely, even for children. The ammo was never far from the guns either. Things back then were a whole lot different.
