The Remington Model 7400 is a series of semi-automatic rifles manufactured by Remington Arms. The Model 7400 was a replacement of the Model 740 rifle which Remington produced from 1952 to 1981.[1] The 7400 model was ultimately replaced by the Model 750 in 2006.[1]
The Model 7400 was first sold in 1981. It is similar to the Model Four, but has a checkered pistol-grip and a straight comb style stock. There are two varieties of barrels: a 22 in (56 cm) version and a 18 in (46 cm) version (introduced in 1988 as the Carbine).[4][3]
