Panel Scene Engraved Original System Aydt Schuetzen Rifle

Features an empty front sight ram and flared section for rear sight mounting, combination notch and peep sight with large diopter disk, double set triggers, a smooth Schnabel forearm, "ORIGINAL-SYSTEM-AYDT" inlaid in gold on the top of the action, "ORIGINAL/SYST-AYDT/3656" on the left side of the breechblock, Germanic floral scroll engraving, a cherub on the right side of the action, a checkered Tyrolean buttstock with thumb rest and single hook buttplate, and sling swivels on the bottom of the barrel and stock.

ConditionVery good. The barrel retains 40% of the thinning original blue finish. The top of the breechblock has some applied blue, and the remaining areas display mostly gray patina and some light spotting. The engraving patterns and markings remain distinct. The re-oiled wood is good and has a hairline crack in the right side of the forearm at the front, numerous dents and scratches, fairly crisp checkering, and a few chips. Mechanically excellent.
