This rifle was manufactured in 1900. Standard features include 24" full octagon barrel, half magazine, Colt logo rubber shotgun buttplate, walnut stocks, and blued finish. The barrel retains approximately 90% original factory blue, thinning on edges. Magazine is a soft blue-brown patina. Frame retains 30-40% blue mixing with a smooth brown patina. Walnut stocks are near mint, proud to metal, never refinished, with no cracks or chips of any kind. Even the screws retain the majority of their fire blue finish. Strong bore. Chambered for all standard .22 cartridges. This rifle is in very clean condition and usually found in worn shape. This is one of the cleaner examples that we have examined.
