An 1867 Dutch rolling block was used for the custom conversion. Frame has the 1867 date and crown on left side. The frame was nicely scroll engraved. The original round barrel was rechambered to 45-70, retaining one barrel band, with an added dovetailed front sight and a full buckhorn rear sight. Barrel breech was also engraved. The original forearm was recontoured. It appears as if an original stock was nicely refinished and uses a military style butt plate. A reproduction long range tang sight was also added. CONDITION: Excellent as converted and completely restored. Bore is bright. Fine working order. Sharp looking rifle.
