Somebody sure erred in sporterizing this trapdoor carbine for deer hunting, but what is left is mighty nice. Start with an excellent condition overall Model 1884 Trapdoor Carbine, then cut the saddle ring bar off, then cut the stock so you can mount a home made buttplate, and VOILA! This is the gun we have. Barreled action and internals are excellent, minty bore, excellent hammer and lockplate, bolt has most all case color, barrel with most all original blue finish, etc. etc. PRICED TO SELL....Must be over 18 to purchase - no ffl or c&r required.
