Description:
VERY HARD TO FIND No. 1 ROLLINGBLOCK SPORTING RIFLE IN RARE AND DESIRABLE .45-70 CALIBER, factory standard medium heavy 26" octagon barrel with the correct and distinctive "Remington crown" at the muzzle (best way to tell if an octagon barrel Rollingblock or Hepburn has been cut down), uncleaned very aged barrel blue mixing brown, dark patina receiver with some aged blue on the breech block and hammer, looks like a few screws may be correct replacements- minor, original Remington style front sight and buckhorn rear sight, exc. markings on the left side of the receiver, fine forend, butt stock has a series of very small "kill notches" cut into the top of the comb- you can really only see them when looking down and not from the side, has a couple usual age cracks coming back from the receiver on the right side but everything solid and un-sanded etc., matching early serial numbers #3XXX, fine+ bore with good rifling throughout and some normal light scattered surface pitting, bottom of the barrel correctly marked "45" and "GOV . T" with the GOV . T part obscured by the forend- this is the way the factory stamped this barrel and it couldn't have been shortened by "setting back" or cutting the receiver end of the barrel because there would be an extra forend retaining screw hole and there isn't. This is a really scarce Frontier Rollingblock sporter in a great caliber with a lot of character and an un-messed with appearance.
