Description

12/22/22 - This is an excellent example of a scarce Springfield Model 1873 Trapdoor Saddle Ring Cavalry Carbine, chambered in .45-70 Govt. It has a 21" barrel, and the saddle ring and bar are intact. There is no apparent evidence of this being a shortened M1873 rifle. Overall, the gun is in really nice condition, but we believe the finish has been professionally restored. It has really nice bluing along the barrel, and the case hardening on the receiver and breech is gorgeous. Some minor discoloration on some of the small parts. The stock is very nice with no major damage. There is a very faint cartouche on the left side of the stock. It appears the stock has likely been lightly sanded. For the most part, the bore is shiny with strong rifling. However, there is an area about halfway where there is some oxidation and very minor pitting. Fully functional.
