Description: For sale in this lot is an antique Rolling Block rifle, which appears to be a Swedish Target Model. The frame, receiver, etc. are from an original, antique Remington Rolling block model of 1867, while the barrel and stocks are replacements. This rifle offers a rear tang adjustable sight and has an octagon barrel (which is a very heavy duty one by Numrich arms). Although it is not marked, the seller told us it is a .40-60 cal.. We have not verified that. Maker: Barrel marked Numrich Arms, West Hurley, NY. (Barrel is a replacement) Frame and receiver are an Antique Remington Rolling Block. Approx. Age: Frame and receiver are late 1800s. Size: Barrel measures 28”. Overall length of 46”. Condition: Pretty good for its age, normal wear expected and parts updated as stated above. Basically it is a fairly new gun with an antique frame and receiver, etc.. Please look closely at the pictures - they are an important part of our description. Shipping: There will be a $15 handling / packaging fee for shipping this lot. The actual cost of postage will be added on top of that.
