As Wes Turner would describe this rifle, it is a parts gun.  
I think almost every part is from a different acquisition.  

The barrel is 30 1/4" long with a 16 twist.  The bore is very good as I tried to show in the photos.  Decent mismatched stocks.  The breech block has the large firing pin and the block face is pitted.  The receiver and barrel are ready for your final polishing and finishing if desired.  As shown, the lever needs some polishing to remove pits.  Mechanically is is in great shape.  The serial number dates to 1900 so shipping will be to a FFL.  
Priced as w follows: Shipping extra and will be calculated based on destination 
As shown with the Lyman tang sight  - $1350
Without the tang sight - $1250
Barrelled action only with no sights at all. $1100

Sold to Greg.  If I would have known it would sell so fast, I wouldn't have spent all morning taking and editing the photos.  Smiley

The moral of the story is “wait until you sober up before doing anything that shows”
