Description:
<<<SOLD>>>> A Springfield Armory clearly marked on the lock-plate 1838. The 32" round rifled bore barrel has surface corrosion but not pitted-out. The exterior metal has heavy brown metal/aged patina. The lock works well and the nipple is complete. The American walnut stock has had a difficult life with the front end shaved down into a carbine and done with an axe, tomahawk, or knife. At the butplate the top spine of the stock has a a long sliver of wood missing up to the iron buttplate that is marked: US .Stock has an ovel cartouche' and initials of TD. The wear and damage of this rifle is commonWhen buying a gun always have it examined by a competent gunsmith before shooting. To buy a gun from me you must get a direct email for me, with details, and shipping cost. We don’t have a web site .I prefer money orders or a check. Item ships when funds come in. I try to keep guns affordable, which means I make less money than most dealers. You won’t get altitude sickness, or nose bleed, with my prices! I consistently have the best selection of older guns If you attempt to buy, you must still contact us for details . Best to email to buy. Sometimes a local person can stop buy and purchase before the gun is removed. Sometimes not home to get calls. Some guns are required shipment to a gun dealer near you for a transfer to you when it arrives. Otherwise many older or black powder guns ship to your door. With the widest selection of older guns at great prices, We don’t have a store, and sell on the internet only. I’m easy to get along with. Thank You
