RARE TRIALS .45-70 GOVT SPRINGFIELD CHAFFEE-REESE Model 1882 Rifle Antique 1 of 753 Made and Chambered in the Original 45-70 GOVT
Description: RARE TRIALS .45-70 GOVT SPRINGFIELD CHAFFEE-REESE Model 1882 Rifle Antique 1 of 753 Made and Chambered in the Original 45-70 GOVT Here we present an antique U.S. Springfield Chaffee-Reese Model 1882 Magazine Bolt Action Rifle in .45-70 GOVT, manufactured at the Springfield Armory in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1884. This is a very nice example of a scarce Chaffee-Reese bolt action repeating rifle. This action was invented by General Reuben S. Chaffee and Jasper N. Reese in 1879, and it was one of the rifles selected by the Magazine Rifle Board of 1882 for field trials with only a total of 753 being produced. The magazine feed mechanism was a tube loaded through a trapdoor in the butt and employed a double ratchet which moved a cartridge forward one space each time the bolt was cycled. A cutoff switch on the right side of the receiver allowed for single shots while keeping the magazine fully loaded. The system was not popular with the troops in the field and only the initial order was made, making this one of the rarest issue weapons manufactured by Springfield Armory. The overall condition is near fine. The action is crisp and tight. The bore is shiny with nice rifling. There is a clear “SWP” cartouche on the left buttstock for Chief Ordnance Inspector S.W. Porter. A name is stamped onto the left buttstock that reads “T. SHEEHAN.” Great stock with great markings. This is a rare opportunity to own an early American trials bolt action repeating rifle! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 28 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 $4500 #20600 SOLD Antique: Yes |
