Plain straight grip stock with crescent buttplate and a Schnabel forearm with ebony insert. With a partial box of Peters .32-20 caliber cartridges.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The rifle retains 30% original blue finish (strong concentration of finish on the bottom barrel flat under the forearm, otherwise scattered traces of finish) with the balance a smooth brown patina. The hammer and lever retain traces of original case colors, otherwise a brown patina. The wood is very fine with some minor dings and scratches, with an added hole 0-present on the underside of the forearm and most of the finish remaining. Mechanically excellent.
