Action is fitted with a G&H side mount with 1" rings and a Lyman peep sight; barrel was purposely never fitted with a quarter rib or rear sight. The rifle retains about 98% of the both G&H rust blue on the metal as well as the original stock finish. The rifle has a 13 3/8" LOP over the original Silver's pad.
