Description:
ONLY THE SECOND OF THESE I’VE SEEN! 1886 .45-70 EXTRA LIGHT WITH 2” LONGER THAN STANDARD 24” BARREL AND FULL MAGAZINE, #147XXX, MADE 1909. Standard barrel length for a Lightweight .45-70 was 22” and fitted with a half magazine. Full magazines on extra lightweight rifles were an extra and not often encountered. I’ve seen a very few with 20” barrels, but only one other with the 24” barrel. This one has excellent walnut stock and forearm and is fitted with a checkered steel shotgun butt plate. It retains nearly all the blue on the barrel and magazine. The receiver shows fine blue on the sides with wear/silver at the typical handling point ahead of the loading gate and on the bottom. Exc. markings including the “nickel steel” stamping, tight action, correct sights, exc. screws, tight wood to metal fit, exc. bright blue on the bolt, exc. bright bore. A super rare 1886 in particularly fine condition! I doubt I’ll see another like this one!
