They are intact on this rifle but, muzzle is worn & as said before, butt plate has loss of metal In 1868 a large order was placed with Remington by the Egyptian Government for the No. 1 Remington Military Rifle to be chambered in the ".43 Egyptian" cartridge, governments at that time considering it a matter of national prestige to field arms with proprietary cartridges. Before the order could be delivered, Egypt (which had had close ties with the French since the Napoleonic excursions and the building of the Suez canal), "defaulted" so that a large part of the order could be sold to France as she was greatly under armed during the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71. It is estimated that some 13,000 such rifles were delivered to France at that time However, the original order was again placed and by 1876 the last of some 60,000 rifles were delivered. (According to militaryrifles.com) This rifle shows the very typical near century of hard use in the sands of North Africa Equipped with bayonet lug; missing ram rod - - NRA: Good - SN: NSN - Est: 300 - 600 - Antq - INV 8657
