Description:
SALE PENDING....50 RF caliber, 20" round barrel, S/N 2281. Blued barrel with brass frame and walnut stock. Blade front sight with double-leaf folding rear sight in 300, 500, and 800 yard intervals. Left side of receiver marked "GREEN RIFLE WORKS/ WORCHESTER MASS/PAT'D 1864". This variation of the Warner patent carbine utilizes a friction-locked breech block held closed by the hammer and opened by a knurled switch on the left side of the breech. Improvements also included a true sling ring bar in place of the eye-bolt ring as well as a more substantial extractor lever. This example shows on the barrel British commercial view and proof marks, almost certainly the result of a sale either by an American firm as surplus or importation after the Franco-Prussian War, in which these carbines participated after their sale to the French by the U.S. Government. **Very good to fine condition overall. Blued finish has aged to a dark gunmetal patination with brass taking on a dark luster. Stock shows some minor handling marks and blemishes but no serious cracks or splits. Bore is bright and shiny!.**....2nd Firearm ships FREE, with this one! ....Thanks, Greg #40-43.
