Dates to 1903. Like the majority of these muskets, this example has seen very little use. Standard blue finish with post front sight, military type folding ladder rear sight, three barrel bands, walnut stock, case color trap door butt plate, swivels with a case color hammer and lever. Accompanied by a W marked bayonet in the white. CONDITION: Excellent. Metal retains vast majority of its bright blue finish with sundry handling marks, some nominal age freckles along with some spotting and age freckling on frame. Gate displays bright peacock blue. Strong case color on hammer with flashes on butt plate and darkening lever. The two piece stock set still shows the raised grain, proud to metal, with scattered impressions and small dings. Mechanically sound. Bore is bright.
