Frontier Firearms from the Lifetime Collection of Larry Ness

Good, nearly relic condition. Metal with a thickly oxidized brown patina with even surface roughness and pitting. Markings in metal remain mostly legible. No markings visible in wood. Mechanically functional, poor bore is extremely dirty, heavily pitted and shows no rifling. Stock heavily worn with some wood loss due to excessive wear on the forend and showing numerous dings, mars and scuffs. The wood has the feel of having spent a significant amount of time exposed to harsh weather.

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.
