Description:

Manufactured in 1890, this Third Model has the distinctive integral dust cover rail machined to the top of the receiver. It is fitted with a replacement magazine tube and barrel marked with the two line address/patent date marking on the left side followed by "MADE IN U.S.A." and "32 W.C.F." equipped with a German blade front sight and buckhorn type rear sight. The serial number appears on the lower tang and model designation is on the upper tang. Full magazine and mounted with a smooth walnut forearm and straight grip stock with a steel forend cap and steel crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very good as factory rebarreled. The magazine and barrel retain approximately 80% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina with some scattered light spotting and some minor dings and scratches overall. The frame, hammer, lever, and buttplate have a smooth brown-gray patina. The revarnished wood is good with some minor dings and scratches. Mechanically fine.
