Blued barrel, receiver, hammer, trigger guard, buttplate, and barrel band. Casehardened breechblock and receiver tang. Left side breech end of barrel marked with "V/P/eagle head" proofmarks. Low arch breechblock marked "US/MODEL/1884". The lock plate is marked with the American eagle next to "U. S./SPRINGFIELD". The oil finished walnut stock is stamped with the boxed script "SWP/1889" final inspection cartouche of Samuel W. Porter on the left wrist. Blade front and Buffington ladder rear sight, two-piece trigger guard and trigger bar assembly, serrated trigger, iron cleaning rod, and smooth buttplate marked "US" on the heel.

Excellent, retains 98% plus original blue finish with some light wear marks around the muzzle, and 97% plus vivid original case colors on the breechblock and barrel tang. The stock is also excellent with sharp defined edges and attractive grains, a few scattered light pressure dents and scratches, and an exceptionally crisp cartouche. Mechanically excellent. This is an outstanding example of a U.S. Springfield Model 1884 Trapdoor rifle that will proudly fill a necessary hole in any U.S. military firearms collection!
