I found an 1873 rifle and have some questions.
It is dated 1873 on the lock plate, has a cartouche dated 1878, but has the buffingin sight. From my research the buffingin sight didn't come about till 1884. So does this sound like a Parts gun?
It is in very good condition, with an excellnt stock, nice crisp cartouches and circle p, and asking price is $800, is this a deal?
Thanks
