Really a super condition example of the rare French Mle. 1917 RSC 8mm Lebel semi-auto rifle. This is the early model with the aluminum cocking knob. MA T 1917 marked. September 1917 stock cartouche. Matching numbers with the exception of transitional bolt hold open device. From what we can tell, this gun is missing the gas block. We have not fired this gun. Good mechanical function. Retains 90% original finish overall. Markings are clear. As with some of these, the receiver is not marked on the left side. Wood has some light dings and handling marks. No cracks. We have not disassembled this gun. Bore is fine with strong sharp rifling. Not import marked. Serial number F21168

FULL payment is to be received within 10 days. We make no warranties or guarantees as to the fire-ability or safety of doing so on any of these items.  Firearms are not test fired, however we do test the action to see if it functions properly for a dry fire. We do not put any ammo in it or disassemble to check internal parts. We will sometimes take off barrels or stocks in an attempt to prevent damage in shipping. We only sell used guns, and have no way to know how many rounds have been through them.  WE DO NOT SHIP INTERNATIONALLY.

We will not ship to a New York, NJ, or CA C&R holder, a standard FFL is required.  There are some states in which a C&R handgun MUST be shipped to a dealer, such as MD. Please know your local laws. We are not going to risk OUR livelihood. WE DO NOT OFFER ANY IN STORE PICK UP, EVERYTHING WILL BE SHIPPED.
