Description:
NICE ORIGINAL UNTOUCHED AND UNCLEANED 1879 TRAPDOOR .45-70 RIFLE, MADE 1884 WITH MATCHING 1884 DATED STOCK CARTOUCHE, a fine example with nice dark patina metal overall, sharp markings on the lock plate, exc. bore, 1879 rear sight with original slotless screws intact (these usually replaced with the slotted variety), tight action, exc. wood, has some "paint spotting" which is surprisingly common on old rifles- I suppose people didn't bother covering guns that were either leaning up in a corner of a room or hanging over a fireplace... as I see lots of rifles with tiny paint spots scattered on the wood and metal- usually comes right off with some oil soaking- anyway, this one has some tiny "dots" of cream colored paint here and there which should be very easy to remove. Retains correct swivels and cleaning rod, good case colors in side action, attractive un-messed with Trapdoor with lots of life left in it!
