The Remington Model 799 is a bolt action repeating hunting rifle made by Serbian Zastava and branded under Remington Arms. The action is based on a modified Mauser 98 action.[3] Before it was marketed by Remington Arms, a much more cheaper and generic version was sold by Charles Daly at a much cheaper price. Charles Daly also offered barreled actions that were. According to Charles Daly Remington offered the maker of these 'mini-Mausers' a much better deal for the rifle.[citation needed]
