Standard blade front and "C" marked Model 1896 carbine (marked 1895) adjustable ladder rear sight graduated to 2,000 yards, and an unmarked notched single barrel band. Receiver marked "U.S./1895. SPRINGFIELD ARMORY 27093". Grasping groove replacement period stock with a saddle ring on the left side of the wrist, crisp original "JSA/1897" inspection stamp, script "P" on the underside of the wrist, and a smooth trapdoor buttplate with cleaning rod and oiler.

Very good. Mostly a thinning brown patina finish remains overall with some scattered light pitting, muzzle wear, and handling marks overall. The receiver has a mottled dark and silver patina with a coat of protective varnish, clear markings, high point and edge wear. The fine stock has clear cartouches and small dings and gouges throughout. Mechanically excellent.
