OE - GOOD - some minor replacement parts; metal smoothly rusted or lightly pitted in places, cleaned; principal lettering, numerals and design on metal legible; lightly scratched, bruised or minor cracks repaired; in good working order.

One of only 7,000 manufactured in 1872/73. There is a plugged hole above the serial number on the "stretched" back to current length barrel. The rifling inside the barrel has a ring in which the replaced forward section transitions to an opposite direction twist.
