Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD M1884 “TRAPDOOR” .45-70 GOVT Rifle WOUNDED KNEE
Description: Antique U.S. SPRINGFIELD M1884 “TRAPDOOR” .45-70 GOVT Rifle WOUNDED KNEE
Made Just Prior to the WOUNDED KNEE MASSACRE
Here we present an antique U.S. Springfield Model 1884 Trapdoor Rifle, manufactured by the Springfield Armory. This rifle was manufactured in January of 1890, around the end of the Indian Wars and just months before the Wounded Knee massacre. After the Civil War, the War Department wanted a breech-loading rifle. To be specific, it wanted a breech-loading rifle that would chamber a self-primed, metallic cartridge. Amazingly, despite the adoption of the ill-fated Model 1882 Chaffee-Reese Bolt Action Magazine Rifle, new models of trapdoor rifles continued to be produced and used all the way through the mid-1890s, until finally, the Krag-Jorgensen was adopted.
The U.S. continued to see unrest and conflict with the displaced Native Americans during this time, including the Wounded Knee Massacre on December 29th, 1890. Trapdoors continued to see use all the way through the Spanish American War.
This one was shortened both in barrel and stock. The ramrod channel was sealed. Later sights were installed.
The overall condition is good. Gray patina throughout. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The stock shows use and there is a stable split along the grain on the left side of the stock. Otherwise solid. Replacement front and rear sight.
Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction.
Barrel is 32-5/8 inches.
Caliber: .45-70 GOVT
