Description:
SALE PENDING.....50 caliber, 32.5" barrel, S/N 26448. Barrel and frame show matching numbers. Blued barrel secured to stock by two spring-retained barrel bands. Blade front sight with ladder rear sight. Case-hardened frame and lock, with case color still highly visible. Top of frame marked with four-line patent marking and Burnside manufacture stamp along with "MODEL "1865" marking. Left of wrist rear of sling swivel marked with "ESA" cartouche of Erskine Allen. In the early 1870, Springfield arsenal converted 1,108 Burnside Contract Spencer Model 1865 carbines to a rifle configuration. The frames were refinished and refitted with a 30", .50 caliber barrel with 3-groove rifling which was subsequently serial numbered to match the frame. A full-size stock was added along with a grooved iron cleaning rod. **Fine condition Barrel retains nearly all of its blued finish with some wear to muzzle along with some minor pitting. Visible case hardening remaining on receiver. Stock shows some minor handling marks and blemishes with an old and very stable 3" crack on lower half of buttstock forward of buttplate, mirrored on each side. Bore is clean and bright. A rare piece for any Spencer or repeating rifle collector.**...2nd Firearm ships FREE, with this one. Thanks...Greg #46-52
