Description:

Manufactured from 1888 to 1897. German silver front blade, adjustable semi-buckhorn rear and mid range tang mounted peep sights. The top barrel flat is marked "REMINGTON ARMS CO ILION, N.Y." ahead of the rear sight with the six line patent marking on the left side of the receiver. The matching serial number is marked on the lower tang and bottom barrel flat under the forearm. The bottom barrel flat is also marked "22" ahead of the forearm. Blue barrel, hammer and breechblock and casehardened receiver. Smooth walnut forearm and straight grip stock with forend cap and crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. The barrel retains 70% original thin blue finish mixed with smooth plum patina. The breechblock and hammer retain almost all of the original bright blue finish. The receiver retains 80% of the original vivid case colors with fading on the trigger guard and a smooth silver-gray on the lower tang. The buttplate is a mix of dark original case colors and smooth silver gray patina. The wood is also very fine with almost all of the original varnish and showing a minor chip on the rear edge of the forearm and scattered minor dents and dings. The markings are crisp and clear. Mechanically excellent.
