Barrel has the two line address/patent marking on the left side along with "25-20 W.C.F." at the breech. Smooth forearm and straight grip stock with steel forend cap and crescent buttplate. Complete with a wooden shipping crate. The lid of the crate has a shipping label from Lt. Joseph L.

Fine. The barrel and magazine tube retain 60% original blue finish with the balance a smooth brown patina. The frame and lever retain 30% original blue with the balance mostly a smooth gray patina with some minor spotting. The wood is very good with numerous minor dings and scratches and a few shallow gouges on the forearm. Mechanically excellent. The crate is good.
