Description:

Manufactured in very early 1885 with a single brass bead sight on the solid rib marked with the one line address and 3 inch chambers with extractor. The receiver has simple border engraving with the patent dates on the underside. It is mounted on a checkered walnut forearm with ebony inlay and round knob pistol grip stock with a blank initial oval and a vented Pachmayr recoil pad. The length of pull is 13 3/4 inches.

Rating Definition:

Very good. The barrels retain 30% original brown finish with all of the Damascus pattern remaining. The remaining metal surfaces have a smooth gray patina. The wood is good as altered (stock shortened) with recoil pad, scattered minor dents and scratches. The checkering remains somewhat crisp. The markings are clear. Mechanically fine.
