U.S.A. accompanied by the company logo. The rifle is mounted in a traditional smooth wood stock with a black composite buttplate and includes a leather sling attached to standard swivels. It is equipped with an aftermarket side-mounted Picatinny rail system supporting a Bushnell Sportview scope with a duplex reticle.

Condition report:
The blued finish on the receiver and barrel remains largely intact, showing only light handling wear and minor surface marks, primarily around the scope mount attachment points. The wood stock is in good used condition with scattered minor dings and scratches consistent with field use. The action appears to function correctly when manually cycled, and the optic provides a clear sight picture. We have not function-tested this firearm.
