1934 Remington military rifle

In 1934 Remington built military rifles for Argentina and Honduras on Model 30 actions and chambered them 7.65 and 7mm. Anyone seen or have access to one of these rifles?

From what I have been able to gather

Winchester also bid on the contract. ...and even delivered a few specimens. I'd love to have either persuasion. The M-30 wasn't a bad gun at all

Interesting topic

I seem to remember that years ago these rifles were offered for sale. Have never seen one in real life. There were also some rifles put together by Bannerman that consisted of Springfield and other surplus parts. I might have them confused. Take care...
