SERIAL 322982. MFG 1889. BARREL 20". CALIBER 44WCF. Standard features include round barrel, full tube magazine, folding ladder rear sight not dated, dove tail front sight, blue finish, two-barrel bands, saddle ring with stud, walnut stocks, steel carbine butt plate with brass door trap. CONDITION: NRA Very good. No original finish, now a smooth patina with some wiped-on finish. Barrel legends are legible. Lever re-blued long ago. Stock very good with impressions and fits OK, but hue and condition do not match forearm, which is darker and has numerous chips and scars. Stock most likely replaced, but it is an original period stock. Fine working order. Bore is thin with abrasions.
Provenance: Ex George Pitman Collection, Rancho Santa Fe, CA
