Description:
    SOLD    An unusual attic find this Springfield dated 1884 Trapdoor carbine for an officer with the early rear sight , and fine hamnd checkering. Comes with two sling swivels, and the action locks up good, with a 24" barrel and a good bore, clean, mild roughness from black powder shells, good rifling.Also has a round brass plate inset into the butt-stock. Haven't seen this variation before , and has a SN of 523568, with a bronze firing pin, and the arsenal finish is still strong, front sight is dovetailed.Stell butt-plate doesn't not havea trap.Looks like a good shooter. 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.
