Description:
  SOLD  A good example of a fairly priced 1873 dated rifle, with a 32 1/2" barrel, and a super clean , shiny, rifled bore better than most I've seen over the years. Tje exterior metal is turned to brown patina and the action works well, and apppears to be a complete gun, any cartouche was long worn off, as the American walnut stock is darkened with age as many went west in the Indian Wars and others were re-issued for the Span-Am War.Correct rear sight, as wel as the front sight, and all the barrel bands..Could use a thorough cleaning.  Firing pin is working and moving. Would make a good black powder shooter.The stock as near the back of the trigger guard age/stress lines or cracks freo  wood drying out , but solid and not open. When buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith  before  shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost.   We don’t have a web  site .I prefer money orders or a check.  Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns  affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of  older guns If you attempt to buy,  you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed.  Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only.  I’m easy to get along with. Thank You.
