Description:
This Model 1876 in 45-60WCF caliber was made in 1882. Special order features are the 28" round barrel and the half magazine, as there were only 540 rifles in this caliber with the half mag. The original sights include a German silver blade front and adjustable folding ladder rear. There is about 20% original blue left on the receiver, mostly in the protected areas around the side plates with the rest turning a mottled brown patina. Barrel is mostly brown with some grey and some blue around the rear sight. Wood is good fitting with the usual scattered minor dents and dings. Action is fine. Bore has some shine with deep rifling and some small scattered pits. Traces of color on the hammer. Good 1876 rifle.
