The action retains perhaps 95% reapplied blue toning to a similar plum patina with remnants of cleaned light pitting and scattered light oxidation staining. The tang markings, barrel address and patent dates are still remarkably clear. The plain walnut stocks remain in about good condition as lightly refinished with the forend showing a number of long thin drying cracks throughout, the buttstock with a few smaller cracks, moderate dings and areas shy of the metal. The front sight is a large replacement German silver blade, the sporting rear sight is intact, the dust cover has been lost and the action seems to function well mechanically.

New Hampshire residents over the age of 21 may take possession of any firearm on day of sale providing the proper paperwork is filled out and the transfer has been approved either through the NH State Police or the FBI NICS System. While most NICS and State approvals are immediate, approvals could take up to 3 days.

Firearms are marked as follows: ANTIQUE - no paperwork required C&R - for firearms that fall under the ATF Curio & Relics licensing and if purchased by a person with a “C&R License” no paperwork is required. NOTE: Items that meet the age requirements but have been altered from their original configuration may NOT be delivered on a C&R License. Firearms that are not marked with one of these notations are considered to be “MODERN” and all proper paperwork is required unless you are an FFL Dealer.
