Description:
ANTIQUE AND VERY SCARCE ORIGINAL 1881 U.S. SPRINGFIELD TRAPDOOR FORAGER CARBINE 20 GAUGE SHOTGUN DATED 1885. THIS IS NUMBER 901 OUT OF ONLY 1376 MADE. OVER 95% ORIGINAL ARSENAL BLUE FINISH. THE CONDITION IS VERY GOOD OVERALL WITH GREAT PERSONAL PERIOD OF USE EMBELISHMENTS "H M. X" (ACTUALLY YOU MIGHT BE ABLE TO RESEARCH WHERE IT WENT AND WHO IT WAS ISSUED TO ?) STOCK HAS LESS THAT EXPECTED BLEMISHES. ACTION IS FULLY FUNCTIONAL CRISP & ROBUST, AS PICTURED & FOUND IN AN OLD TIME NEW ENGLAND COLLECTION. NO TRAPDOOR COLLECTION IS COMPLETE WITHOUT A 1881 FORAGER AND THIS IS A VERY GOOD EXAMPLE THAT APPEARS TO BE SHOOTABLE WITH PROPER LOADS IF WANTED.
TAKE A LOOK AT MY OTHER LISTINGS FROM THE COLLECTION IF YOU HAVE TIME.
THIS MUST BE SOLD ASAP. LOOK AROUND THE PRICE IS MORE THAN FAIR BUT SERIOUS OFFERS WELCOME.
$55.00 S&H DIRECT TO YOU ANYWHERE IN THE U.S THAT'S OK or TO LICENSED C&R COLLECTOR or FFL WHERE IT'S NOT.
CHECK YOUR LOCAL & STATE LAWS BEFORE BUYING.
