VERY FINE CONDITION STEVENS HIGH GRADE TIP UP TARGET RIFLE WITH SWISS BUTT AND WALNUT FOREND

Description:
VERY FINE CONDITION STEVENS HIGH GRADE TIP UP TARGET RIFLE WITH SWISS BUTT AND WALNUT FOREND. These fine rifles were made from the 1870s to 1895 in rim fire and center fire calibers and in a number of different grades from #1 to #10. I believe this one is either a #9 or #10 with the only difference being the grain of the walnut- this one has better than standard walnut with some nice fiddleback, but is not extra fancy. It correctly features a center fire chambering that I am quite sure is the .32-35 Stevens round made expressly for this rifle. It was also made with a fairly stout 18" half octagon barrel with no provision for a rear barrel sight and is correctly fitted with an elevation adjustable target tang sight with a windage adjustable globe front sight (this is correct for the high grade #9 and #10 rifles). Interestingly, this rifle was catalogued at $33.50 (this info taken from James Grant's classic book Single Shot Rifles and he does not give a catalog date for this price and info). The nickel plated receiver and flowing trigger guard retain about all the bright nickel as does the Swiss butt plate with only minute areas of peeling. Barrel blue is fine and showing a little thinning from age. Screws are excellent, stock and forend are excellent showing only very light wear and some surface black powder staining- typical when black powder fouled water or solvent runs out of the bore and down the stock when cleaning, serial number 17XXX matches on the lower tang, inside the trigger guard and on the barrel. The action is very tight and the bore is slightly dark with fine deep rifling and looks like it could use a good clean to remove some light areas of leading to make it excellent. This is a super scarce early Stevens in a center fire caliber in great condition.
