"The gun that won the west"  This is your rare chance to own a piece of American History.  This rifle has a 24" round barrel.  It is in good functional order.  This rifel was made in 1881 and is now 147 years old.  The bore is clean and the rifle shows its age and use.  The patina is very nice looking.  I have not fired it, but have no doubt it will function as designed.  The early 1873 rifles have no idetification of the caliber because the only made one caliber, 44-40 and this is one of the early ones.  Why am I selling?  Because I have 3 of them and have to thin the herd.  I will take the best offer over 2K.  Thanks for looking.  If you have a trade, let me know.
