Remington Hepburn 45-70 (45. 2 7/8)) Number 3 Sporting & Target Rifle
Description: A Collector's Used Remington Hepburn Sporting Rifle in 45-70 Caliber that appears to be an Original No. 3 Sporting & Target Model. It has a 27-¼ Inch (probably designated 28-Inch by the Factory) Full Octagon Barrel marked on the top flat: “E. Remington & Sons. Ilion, N.Y.” and on the bottom flat ahead of the forend "45. 2 7/8" with Serial Number 46XX on the bottom tang. It has a Single Trigger, and all mechanical functions feel tight and operational. The Wood Stock is dark with age; has a Standard Blue Steel Curved Buttplate; and Prince-of-Wales Style Pistol Grip that’s Nicely Border-Checkered. The Wood to Metal Buttstock-Receiver junctions have graceful Oval Transitions. The Barrel has a Drift-Adjustable Front Sight and a correct (replacement-original) rear sight. The Upper Tang has two empty screw holes that look like they once held a Tang Sight. The non-checkered Forend has a Graceful Steel Schnabel-Style Tip. The bore has some pits and linear blemishes; however, the rifling is preserved; and the exterior Blue is in Good Condition. These were supposed to have come from the factory with Case Hardened & Colored Receivers. This one is Blue – an indication that the Receiver and perhaps the Barrel were Reblued. The markings are so well-preserved that whoever did the job was careful in that respect – including with the Buttplate and other metal furniture and parts. Please ask any questions or request additional information before purchase as this item will be troublesome and costly to return owing to CA re-registration and other regulations. Any refunds will be minus our actual shipping cost and FFL fees (greater than $150) after buyer pays return shipping. Payment is by Money Order, Bank (Certified) Check or Personal Check (held 2-3 days). We are not a dealer, and cannot handle credit card or electronic payments. This item is subject to prior sale.
