Only 1,108 carbines were converted by Springfield Armory in the early 1870s by fitting new barrels, rifle-musket style forearms, and Stabler magazine cut-offs. This one has the standard markings and features.

Fine as arsenal refurbished with a mottled mix of 30% faded original blue/casehardened finish, gray and brown patina, light oxidation, and minor pitting. The wood is fine and has minor scrapes, chips, and dents. Mechanically fine.
