Arms, Armor and Militaria Online

Good. Bores are bright, left bore has a spot of residue toward muzzle. Finish has cloudy appearance overall, with scattered light scratches, clusters of pitting (mostly to bottom of barrels), and several dents to both sides of barrels. Frame appears to have been buffed at some point and engravings are somewhat weak. Stock is in good condition, possibly refurbished as tang has some slight gapping around wood to metal fit. Break lever is right of center and has wiggle to it. Hard rubber buttplate has a large loss below bottom screw, but the missing piece is included. Action may need work. Action is functional, but crossbolt does not retract all the way when action is closed.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
