This rifle has a frame that was built in 1911. The barrel is dated 2-27 and is star gauged. The walnut stock is referred to as the NBA style with flat pistol grips walnut stock with finger groove and two re-inforcing stock bolts. The NBA factory sporting rifle was only offered in 1926. The bolt is not laser etched and the frame is way too early as there were no factory sporters in 1911. Other features include a standard Lyman Model 48 peep sight, standard military front sight, and checkered buttplate with no trap door. CONDITION: Metal retains virtually all of its reapplied blue finish and stock is excellent but there is a light crack into wrist on left side. Fine bore. ME reading: 1. Stocks are fine but refinished. A fine, custom built 1903 sporting rifle made to the specs of a NBA rifle as assembled.
