The rifled barrel has a dovetailed blade front sight, notch rear sight with folding leaf and scroll finial, "1" and "Jo. ARNOLD" in silver inlay at the breech, and a "crown/V" on-hand proof (indicating it was in a shop in the 1890s), and the smoothbore barrel has a dovetailed blade front sight, "2" and "IN ALTDORF" in silver inlay at the breech, and another "crown/V" proof. A mounting point for an absent peep sight is on the top of the wrist. The stock and forend panels have some incised scroll carving and molding, a detailed deer scene on the left side behind the cheek rest, and scroll pattern silver plated brass furniture and accents. The trigger guard pulls back to free the barrel group for rotating. "40" is stamped in the stock ahead of the sling stud.
