Description:
Serial #9318, .41 Swiss RF, 33" barrel with an excellent, bright bore. This is a Montier-Werkstatte-manufactured, double-set trigger, sharpshooter’s rifle that has retained traces of the original blue finish with the balance of the metal streaked pewter gray and plum-brown. Additionally, there are scattered small spots of plum-brown freckling throughout, most noticeably on the domed bolt shroud. The metal has some further silvering and fading along the exposed edges, and the trigger guard has been partially cleaned to bright. The walnut buttstock and forend have minor surface scratches and small blemishes evenly scattered about the armory reapplied military oil finish. Additionally, there is a linear bruise on the right side of the wrist that that runs along the axis of the rifle. An original cleaning rod is included. This is a very good plus example of a rare and desirable Swiss military rifle, made by a seldom seen maker. Antique
