Here are a few shots of a really neat old 1871 Carbine. It has case hardened scroll/ jaeger style trigger guard with set triggers.
I guess the rifle was sporterized many years ago. The receiver is blued but it is old and has wear on the high edges.
Olson wrote in his book how these old Mausers were sold surplus and converted to sporting arms. Even shotguns.
The rifle is all matching except for one or two screws.
