Remington Model 1879 Rolling Block Rifle
Another excellent Argentine rolling block rifle, about mint bore and crisp mechanics from the reneged Argentine contract. Argentina purchased several thousand of these rifles but in mid contract decided to purchase Mauser bolt action rifles and did not take delivery. As these were not used in anger they are generally in excellent condition having been stored for more than 100 years until the Bannerman company found them. Arsenal refinished as the entire hoard was and a good example to enhance any collection, there is one small good arsenal repair to the wood on the right side of the forend but no cracks or other defects. The rifle has the Argentina 1879 EN stamp on the Knox and original cleaning rod. Should you wish to put this onto a FAC reloading equipment is available.
