Ejector; that was finished at the factory on
Sept. 11, 1911. Rifle was returned to the
factory for re-regulation in Feb. 1931, at
which time the barrels were re-blacked as
well; according to the ledger record. Action i
s a third bite with bushed strikers. Barre
l black remains at 94%. Action retains
strong traces of original case color. Rifle
was originally built as a right hand rifle.
A left hand stock by J J Perodeau was recently added without any alteration to the
original configuration or the original stock
. J.J. also fitted a red dot optic sight into the
open sight dovetail without any alteration
to the gun as well. Bores are in excellent
condition with tall square cornered rifling
throughout the entire length.
This is a totally sound rifle in all aspects that
shoots very accurately. Ready for another
lifetime of service. I have far more photos
of this rifle in both it's right and left hand
configurations. Just ask
