Description:
EARLY 1873 .44-40 OCTAGON 2ND MODEL RIFLE, #57XXX, MADE 1880. This is a really honest, uncleaned and un-messed with 2nd Model. The receiver is basically an attractive aged brown with some very aged blue in the most protected areas and on the loading gate. Fine screws with only one side plate screw appearing replaced. The barrel and magazine tube is an attractive soft aged blue/plum patina and fine barrel markings. The butt stock is fine showing only normal handling marks and the forend has some honest saddle wear to the bottom. Correct rear buckhorn sight with small German silver blade front sight. Lever catch intact as is the dust cover that slides on the 2nd Model screwed-in rail. Bore is a bit dark with good rifling and surface scattered light pitting, mellow brass lifter.  Fine action and really nice appearance.
