Thick wall receiver, two barrel bands, sling swivel on the underside of the front barrel band and buttstock and full length musket stock.

Good, retaining streaks of original blue finish of the barrel; otherwise, the rifle has a mottled brown-gray patina. The revarnished wood is also good with a couple tiny chips missing near the upper tang and some minor dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
