This 44 1/2 action rifle was manufactured circa 1896-1916 and is equipped with a globe front sight, scope mounting blocks, Vernier peep sight, smooth Schnabel forearm and pistol grip stock with high comb and Swiss buttplate. The serial numbers on the forearm, barrel, lower tang, and buttplate match. The butt has a series of holes likely in an effort to reduce weight. It also has a full loop lever, double set triggers, and the standard barrel markings.
