Manufactured in 1901. Beaded blade front and elevation adjustable rear notch sights. Standard two-line address forward of the rear sight and "22 LONG" at the breech.

Mounted with a 12 groove forearm and straight grip stock with a casehardened crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very fine. 85% plus original blue finish remains on the barrel and magazine tube, with some mild edge wear, scattered small dings, handling marks, crisp barrel markings, and some visible thinning to a gray patina on the magazine tube. The frame has 70% original muted case colors with some high point and edge wear, crisp tang markings, and areas aged to a smooth gray patina. The slide bar retention plate on left side of frame is battered. The wood is very fine with some scattered small indentations, handling marks, and thinning finish near the butt. Mechanically excellent.
