Description:

Manufactured in 1898 with a German silver blade front sight and an adjustable buckhorn style sporting rear sight. The top of the barrel is stamped with the two-line address marking ahead of the rear sight and "38-55" at the breech. The serial number is marked on the underside of the frame. It features a full length magazine tube, blue finish with casehardened hammer, lever and buttplate; and mounted with a smooth walnut forearm and straight grip stock with forend cap and crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very good as partially refinished (wood). The barrel and magazine tube have 40% of the original blue finish with the balance a brown patina. The receiver retains 30% of the original blue finish with areas of smooth gray patina and light scratches. The hammer, lever and buttplate have some traces of the original case colors and otherwise a mottled gray patina. The refinished wood is good with some scattered minor dents, dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent with clear markings.
