Well, the Nylon 76 in the colors mentioned would be the only thing that would fit.

Not comprehensive by any matter of means, but this page gives a decent description of the Nylon models.

I remember the ad campaign for those. Nanook of The North in a blizzard. I think he had shot a seal or something. Those old gun ads really stoked the imagination. 8)

Interesting article. I bought my 76 while I was waiting for the counter guy to check availability on the M6 Hornet/.410 I was ordering. It was in the rack and was one from his personal collection. He was thinning it out because of a chip out of the butt plate. I'm not a collector and it's shooting value wasn't hurt so I ponied up the $175 he wanted and took it with me. It also came with a vintage Weaver .22 scope that I didn't really want but now like it because of it's vintage qualities. Think that was around '97-'98.

Foolishly passed on a 12 bolt action at a yard sale, NIB with all the hang tags. Owner wanted $200, seemed high then, now, not so much.
