Wood is exceptional for a 1866. Some usage marks but overall very nice condition. Good fitting to upper and lower tangs. Slight shrinkage at the toe. A coat of finish was added. Also, this carbine has an interesting circle cartouche on the left hand side of the stock with fancy lettering that say “A O S”. These cartouches are believed to be part of the 1866’s in this serial range that were sold and sent to South America in 1877.
