Class: Curio & Relic Handgun
Description:

Built by an unknown smith, this is a very unique pump action pistol that is very similar to a Stevens visible loader. The pistol is nearly identical in shape and function to the Stevens Model 70 Visible Loader, with an under-barrel tube magazine connected directly to a combination breechblock and elevator assembly. Aside from the Lyman bead front sight, no makers markings are present. Fitted with an adjustable notch rear sight, casehardened breechblock and hammer, and a checkered forearm and pistol grip.

Rating Definition:

Good with 60% of the blue finish, showing areas of brown and gray patina, bright edge wear and scattered handling marks. The wood is good with some mild cracks in the grip and light dings overall. Mechanically good.
