Item Description: Translate description
serial #3384, 44 CF, 22 5/8'' round barrel with a partially bright about very good bore showing some scattered areas of light pitting and oxidation with otherwise strong rifling. This little stalking, or perhaps ''large bore'' Rook rifle shows Birmingham proof marks and 54 bore marking. The metal surfaces are mostly a deep gray and gray-brown patina showing an old cleaning with remnants of light pitting and oxidation mostly along the barrel with Kavanagh's Dublin address a bit soft but mostly legible. The lockplate shows stronger Kavanagh markings and is embellished with nice tasteful English scrollwork and the triggerguard features a nice checkered rear finger rest and pineapple extension with additional foliate scrollwork. The checkered walnut stock remains in very good plus condition with a small crack ahead of lockplate, thin sliver missing along right edge of forend and overall light dings. The sides of the buttstock show fine grain figure throughout, the nosecap is horn and there is a silver monogram plate and stamped number ''5088'' along the toe line. The rifle is equipped with sling swivel eyes and sighted with a standing 50 foot v-notch rear sight with flip-ups leaves for 50 and 100 yards and plain bead front. One edge of the barrel wedge is chipped and the action otherwise seems to function well mechanically. An attractive little Snider action rifle retailed in Ireland. (13B11621-110) {ANTIQUE} (800/1000)
