The arm features a pewter nose cap and brass butt plate and patch box and the smooth walnut buttstock rates fine to excellent with original varnish and the expected light dings and handling marks from the years. The forend rates very good to fine showing a bit more wear, with the associated light dings and handling marks. The original front sight is intact while the rear has been replaced with a correct blued reproduction sight. The arm is equipped with double set triggers and functions perfectly mechanically. There is a single factory drilled and tapped hole atop the tang for mounting of a peep sight and the barrel and frame are matching. A beautiful example overall with an uncommonly nice bore.
