Description: 24 inch round tapered barrel chambered in the desirable 405 WCF caliber. Dark bore has good rifling and needs a cleaning.

Good amount of thinning blue on the barrel with some gray showing through near the frame. Receiver is mostly a gray/brown. Ebony tipped forearm has a glued repair near the tip of the left side. Buttstock has typical handling dings and a steel crescent rifle buttplate. Stocks have been refinished at some time. This gun was manufactured in 1899.
