Description
Spencer Carbine, .50 cal. Post-War Alteration. Serial #42348. Very good condition. 22” barrel has shiny 3-groove rifling, correct sights, 70% blue with some light surface corrosion. Receiver and lever have fading case colors with good screws. Stock and forearm have excellent finish with some chipping behind receiver – probably due to arsenal re-stocking. Correct “Stabler Cutoff” ahead of trigger and “ESA” inspector marking on stock. These were altered at Springfield Armory post-war. Lever action works fine. A rare variant of the issue Spencer carbine – a great addition to any Civil War collection! Antique – can ship to your door.
