Blade front and ladder rear sights with "L.F.R." stamped on the left barrel flat. Casehardened receiver with barrel release latch inside the trigger guard, "MANUFACTURED BY/AM'N.M'CH'N.WKS./SPRINGFIELD.MASS", "ADDRESS/POULTNEY & TRIMBLE./BALTIMORE. U.S.A.", and "SMITH'S PATENT/JUNE 23. 1857" on the left side near the saddle ring bar. Smooth forearm and straight grip walnut stock with an oval "JH" cartouche on the left side of the wrist and a steel buttplate.

Very fine with 85% of the original blue finish, showing areas of brown patina, a mixed brown and grey on the barrel band, and scattered handling marks. Bright case colors are visible on the frame with areas of mixed brown and silver patina, particularly along the edges. Stock is also very fine with some dents, particularly on the forearm, mild chipping around the buttplate, and some handling marks. Mechanically excellent.
