Good uncleaned example with gray/brown receiver and excellent deep blue on the bolt, mostly gray/plum brown barrel and mag tube with some good aged blue in the more protected areas on the bottom of the barrel and on the top of the mag tube etc., has the desirable "Sporting Ladder Sight" that is the earliest style marked "1876" and has the slide intact and standard Winchester blade front sight, fine forend, fine butt stock with the usual small sliver/chip out at the upper tang/receiver junction on the left side, exc. markings, tight action with surprisingly good bore that has fine rifling throughout with some scattered light roughness mainly toward the middle, really fine appearance, I called the Cody Museum myself and had this one verified as a .45-70 oct rifle etc. One of the earliest and lowest serial numbered 1886s I've seen, and in the best caliber.
