Manufactured in 1907 with the standard two-line address and caliber designation on the upper barrel flat, the address partially obscured by an added dovetail/scope block. The No. 3 weight barrel is fitted with a globe front sight, a rear dovetail filler, as well as being drilled and tapped for two scope blocks which are fitted with the included Winchester A5 scope. The action is fitted with a single set trigger and a peep sight is mounted on the upper tang. Mounted with a smooth forearm (drilled for palm rest, which is absent) with ebony insert and a straight grip stock with a crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Very fine, retains 80% plus original blue finish and traces of original case colors on the lever with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina primarily on the buttplate, lever, and in the form of some light edge wear and handling marks. The refinished wood is fine with some scattered light dings and scratches. Mechanically excellent. The scope is very good retaining 60% original blue finish with clear optics.
