The Remington Model 12 is a slide-action takedown rifle designed by John Pedersen[1] and produced by the Remington Arms Company from 1909 to 1936.[2]

The Model 12 is chambered in .22 Caliber Rimfire and accepts Short, Long, and Long Rifle cartridges, with a tubular magazine capacity of 14, 11, and 10 rounds respectively. S Grade variants of the rifle are chambered for the proprietary .22 Remington Special cartridge, which is functionally identical to the .22 Winchester Rimfire cartridge.[3]
