Manufactured c. 1866-1875. Features blade and notch/folding ladder sights, "54" on the bottom of the barrel at the breech, the serial number on the front of the action, Providence Tool Co. marking on the right, Peabody patent on the left, and smooth stock and forearm. Consignor note: rare rimfire sporting rifle.

Very good plus with the 30% blue finish on the barrel faded to an even brown patina, faint original case colors, mottled gray and brown patina on the balance, some minor oxidation, and general minor dings and scratches. The wood is fine and has some minor scratches and dents. Mechanically excellent.
