Description:

Manufactured in 1893. The modern custom made extra long barrel is marked with the two-line address ahead of the rear sight and "38-56 W.C.F." at the breech. The upper tang is marked "--MODEL 1886--". The 1884 and 1885 patent dates are marked on the lower tang directly behind the trigger, and the serial number is at the end. It has a dovetailed blade front sight, folding ladder rear sight, blue barrel, full length magazine and buttplate, casehardened remaining parts, and is mounted with a smooth walnut forearm with steel forend cap and straight grip stock with a checkered steel shotgun buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Fine as refurbished and rebarreled with 99% custom blue finish remaining on the custom, remarked barrel and magazine tube. Almost all of the bright case colors remain with some areas of smooth gray. The wood shows a few minor dings and scratches, mainly on the forearm. The markings are crisp and clear. The action is excellent.
