INDIAN WARS Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD M1888 TRAPDOOR Rifle w/RAMROD BAYONET
“SWP/1891” Steven W. Porter Inspected Trapdoor
Description: INDIAN WARS Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD M1888 TRAPDOOR Rifle w/RAMROD BAYONET “SWP/1891” Steven W. Porter Inspected Trapdoor Here we present an antique U.S. Springfield Model 1888 Trapdoor Rifle in .45-70 GOVT, made circa 1891 in Springfield, Massachusetts. These were the last of the trapdoor rifles that were in use since the end of the American Civil War. It also marked the end of the black powder-era, single shot, big-bore, hammer-fired rifles in U.S. service. The U.S. government would adopt the Krag-Jorgensen in 30-40 Krag, a smokeless, small-bore, bolt action repeater. However, when the U.S. went to war with Spain in the Spanish-American War in Cuba, many, if not a majority, of the state militia troops were still using the latest models of trapdoor rifle. This rifle is equipped with a ramrod bayonet and a highly adjustable and optimistic Buffington rear sight. The lock is marked with a federal eagle and “U.S. SPRINGFIELD”. Many state militias purchased these and used them long after they were out of use with the federal military. The left stock is clearly marked SWP/1891, indicating that this rifle was inspected by Steven W. Porter, Master Armorer and Ordnance Inspector at the Springfield Armory. The overall condition is very fine. Original blue finish and case colors. Clear inspection markings and cartouche. The action is excellent and the bore is shiny bright with sharp rifling. The stock is smooth and solid throughout. The leather sling is in fine condition. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 32-5/8 inches. Caliber: .45-70 GOVT Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2200 #247104 SOLD Antique: Yes |
