Description:
Early gun built in 1899 just missing the antique status. A standard configuration gun with 28" bbl. Cal 30 US. Aging medium brown color to the bbl. Inside the bore is pretty good cond. The receiver is a plum/brown with nice markings. Action is solid but a bit sticky from not being used. Forearm has a few dings and scratches but the wood is sound. One very slight chip missing in the upper corner towards the frame. Buttstock looks pretty nice from the left side. A few dings but fits nice. Turn it over and look at the right side and you will wonder what the hell is that!?! It is an inletted sharpening stone added probably 100+ years ago. I guess it would be beneficial when shooting a lot of game to be able to keep your knife sharp. The stone is very old and has age cracks and a chip missing. Bring this rifle to deer camp and you can gut and skin everyone's deer!
