Description:

Manufactured in 1979. There is a scope block mounted at the muzzle and at the breech end. The sides of the receiver are decorated with tight Acanthus scroll with a circle in the center. Inside the circle on the left side is "Lyman/1878-1978/CENTENNIAL/EDITION II". The circle on the right side shows a leaping dear with a scope lined up ready to fire. The right side is also marked "Lyman/1878-1978". Mounted on a nicely figured, multi-point checkered walnut forearm and pistol grip stock with red rubber recoil pad. With a green velvet lined hardwood case, a Century Model scope with matching L-78-0986 next to the serial number to the rifle, 3 reloading dies, book, box of empty brass, bullet mold and cleaning rod.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, 98% plus of the original blue finish remains with scattered freckling on the right side of the barrel and a few scattered handling marks. The wood is also excellent with some moderate dings on the bottom of the forearm and some scattered minor handling marks overall. Mechanically excellent. The scope is very good with some scratches from the mounts sliding. The case is good with scattered scratches, dings and a crack in the lid along with the interior partly detached and having some tears. The accessories are all very good.
