Manufactured in 1901. The serial number correctly falls into the carbine serial number range (222609-362256) and features a blade front sight on a high stud and folding rear sight graduated from 7 to 18 on the ladder and to 6 on base. Standard left side receiver markings. Mounted with a straight grip half stock with hand guard that has hump with a groove for the sight, a single barrel band, and curve toed steel buttplate with a trapdoor compartment with brown fabric patches and string inside. The left side of the stock is stamped with a cartouche dated 1901 and a circled script "P" is behind the trigger guard with a "30" marked just ahead of it.

Very good as arsenal refinished. This rifle retains 95% of the arsenal refurbished blue finish and correct nearly black oil quenched case color with some edge wear and some overall light marks and dings. The bolt and bolt handle are bright with some minor speckled marks. The barrel band and trigger guard are a polished blue with some finish wear. The buttplate has nearly all the blue finish with some minor edge wear. The revarnished wood is very good with a small crack on the left side in front and behind of the receiver and otherwise only minor dings and scratches. The bolt slides smoothly and the action is fine.
