Buffington rear and blade front sights, ramrod bayonet and smooth buttplate with trapdoor. "V P eagle head P" proof and inspection marks on barrel with "A" on top at breech, "US/MODEL/1884" marked breechblock, and "Eagle/Shield" motif next to "U.S./SPRINGFIELD" on the lock. Oiled stock has a circle "P" proof, a boxed "SWP / 1892" cartouche, and "12 / 472" stamped on buttstock (right side).

Fine. The rifle retains 40% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. The breechblock and upper tang retain 40% original case colors. The stock is fine with some minor dings and scratches with a couple minor chips missing near the ramrod bayonet channel. Mechanically excellent.

The 1863 dated lock plate has the standard "eagle/shield" and "U.S./SPRINGFIELD" markings with the breechblock dated 1869 with the eagle head/cross arrows over "US". Matching number on barrel and receiver. Blade front sight/bayonet lug and ladder rear sight, with sling swivels, two barrel bands, and iron ramrod. With "US" marked bayonet and scabbard with frog.

Fair. The metal surfaces have been cleaned and there is some light pin point pitting. The sanded and reoiled wood is fair with some dings and dents with a long hairline crack behind the rear barrel band on the underside and some missing sliver on the ramrod channel. The bayonet has a mottled gray patina with some minor pitting. Mechanically fine.
