Manufactured in 1870. Features a dovetailed German silver blade front sight, elevation adjustable notch rear sight, the two-line address and King's patent marking just ahead of the rear sight, "149847" just behind the trigger and empty stock compartment.

Very good, retains 20% original blue finish strongest in sheltered areas with the balance a mixture of thinned blue and plum-brown patina. The balance of the brass shows mostly an attractive "gold tone" patina with some grinding marks visible on the left side of the receiver. The revarnished wood is good with numerous scattered minor dings and scratches throughout and the forearm with some scattered flaking varnish. Mechanically fine.
