Manufactured in 1895 with standard markings. Fitted with German silver blade front and elevation adjustable semi-buckhorn rear sights. Mounted with a smooth forearm and straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate. The included factory letter confirms the current configuration when received at the warehouse on 7 September 1895 and shipped on 13 September 1895 with nine other arms to order number 20562.

Fine, retains 60% plus original blue finish, faint traces of original case colors and patterns, and 30% original nitre blue with the balance thinning to a smooth grey or plum brown patina. The revarnished wood is good with some minor dings and scratches scattered throughout and a hairline crack on each side of the buttstock. Mechanically excellent.
