Antique Springfield Armory Model 1884 Trapdoor Rifle in 45-70 Govt.
Here is a very nice U.S. model 1884 Trapdoor rifle by Springfield Armory in 45-70 Govt. caliber with a 32 5/8" long barrel having a bright, near excellent bore. The low arch 1884 dated breech block and breech plug rate very good retaining a significant amount of their original case colors having mellowed some. The barrel, bands, receiver, lock plate and trigger guard assembly retain 95% original blue finish with much of the loss located at the muzzle and on the high points. The forend cap and butt plate exhibit a pleasing soft brownish gray patina. The "SWP / 1890" stamped walnut stock rates excellent with a few light dings and handling marks. This rifle features the Buffington style rear sight, includes the original cleaning rod and has a modern military style leather sling present. An attractive looking rifle for the collector or investor. {Antique} (see photos)
