The Remington Nylon 66 is a lightweight, semi-automatic .22 LR rifle that became a popular firearm due to its innovative design and reliable performance. Introduced in 1959, it was one of the first mass-produced rifles to feature a synthetic stock made from DuPont's Nylon Zytel-101 material, which gave it a distinctive appearance and exceptional durability. The rifle is known for its corrosion resistance, minimal maintenance requirements, and smooth operation. With a 14-round tubular magazine located in the stock, the Nylon 66 offered high capacity and ease of use. Its reliability and affordability made it a favorite among hunters, plinkers, and collectors, earning it a lasting legacy in the world of rimfire rifles.
