Curious .. how come some have that rivet ?
Dang that allot of mags LOL
Variations of mfg date, that rivet slides forward and acts as a bolt release. Older ones did not have the release.

Comes with tow mags which I hear is hard to find extras that are factory.
4 rounds is plenty for it, i'll hold on to it like old rifles.10 fast rounds through the ol' girl probably wouldn't do her much good.
She's no battle rifle.
But kids do like to monkey around with that kind of thing.
Sorry I didn't see this thread before you did the trade. Let me go out ( in a few) and take a couple photos of what to look for when looking at a used Remington auto loader.
These rifles are well known in the gunsmithing world as the yearly pre hunting season income generators.
Remington made these rifles slightly difficult to keep the locking lug and chamber clean. So some of them sit around year after year with dirty chambers. It causes them to end up having timing issues. The bolt and carrier end up creating havoc inside the frame. When the bolt travels rearward during recoil, sometimes the bolt head itself tries to rotate and it jams and sticks. Fire a few shots and extraction is sluggish and it causes the extractor to come out of its recess in the bolt head.
Every year I see them with chambers that are corroded up, causing all sorts of issues.
Replacement barrels are getting harder and harder to find.
