Description:
SPECIAL ORDER 1894 .38-55 OCTAGON TAKEDOWN RIFLE WITH SHOTGUN BUTT, #296XXX, MADE 1906. This fine 1894 came out of right here in Montana. The barrel shows fine blue that is thinning on the high edges, the magazine tube shows nearly all the deep original blue. The receiver is mostly an uncleaned gray with some good blue in the rear portions and on the loading gate. The bolt on top of the receiver shows fine deep blue. the butt stock has a higher grade of walnut than standard which is fairly typical of special order rifles as select grade walnut was often used on these. There is some fancy grain toward the top or comb of the butt stock. It is fitted with a steel butt plate and like the forend shows only the lightest of handling and very tight wood to metal fit. The bore displays fine rifling all the way through and looks to have some surface roughness scattered toward the middle of the bore that will probably brush out better. The takedown is tight as is the action and screws are excellent. Retains the original buckhorn and Winchester small blade front sight. A really handsome and un-fooled with rifle from Montana.
