Serial number correctly falls into the carbine serial number range (222609-362256). Blade front sight with tangent rear sight graduated from 1 to 20. The left side of the receiver is marked "U.S./MODEL 1899. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY 288209". Mounted with a straight grip half stock with matching hand guard and steel buttplate with compartment (cleaning rod not included). The left side of the stock is stamped with a sharp "JSA/1900" cartouche, a small "60" and circled "P" behind the trigger guard.

Very good plus. The barrel retains 20% original dark blue finish mixed with a smooth brown patina. The remaining metal surfaces have a smooth mottled gray patina. The stock and hand guard are both very fine with a clear cartouche, few minor dents and scratches. The markings are clear. Mechanically excellent.
