Condition report:
The rifle is in excellent, near-new condition, suggesting minimal to no use. The blued finish on the octagonal barrel, magazine tube, and lever is approximately 98-99% intact, showing no significant wear or scratches. The wood furniture is excellent, retaining its original finish with strong grain definition and no chips or cracks. The polished brass receiver and butt plate show minor discoloration and light patina consistent with storage, which is typical for this material. The bore appears bright with sharp rifling. The lever action appears to function correctly and smoothly. We have not function-tested this firearm with live ammunition. It is the buyer\'s responsibility to ensure compliance with all local, state, and federal firearms laws.
