Very desirable 45Gov’t caliber (45/70) with VG+ bore and tight smooth action. Matching number under the forestock and also marked “EB” which I think means “elevated base” which would be pertaining to the rear barrel sight. Smooth grey-brown patina on VG metal with VG markings. This old Rolling Block looks to be a typical “buff killer” of that era, and the wood looks very typical of a rifle that had been well-used in that late 1870s profession. It has medium to heavy wear and some dishing of the forestock from carrying across the saddle. VG/VG+ as described. $3250 SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Antique: Yes |
