Found this one online locally and only 15 miles away.

The tiger stripe stretches from one end to the other, couldn't seem to capture it completely with the camera. Rifle has perfect cartouches and wood has not been sanded. Rifle has a perfect bore and like most other the crest on the receiver has been ground.

Afyer a little bit of searching I found the rifles was made by DWM in 1899.

Receiver, barrel, bolt, stock, magazine and cleaning rod are stamped with matching S/N. Haven't disassembled it, are there any other parts stamped with S/N? :D :b

I agree. Nice find. I could only hope to find one someday with a stock like that.

I was really shocked to run across it on a local online classifieds, had the guy send pics at first. Took one look at the pics and thought no way, something has to be wrong this to good to be true. Got to his house and there it was better than the pics, money was out and on the table. Laughing

She sit in a gun sleeve right now protected, I'm afraid of dinging her. Might end up shooting her down the road or might even trade her for something else to my likings. Right now she is just nice to show off. Wink

Will keep you in mind Gatsby, but have a couple of guys local that have expressed interest. Loaded up some ammo the other day but the darn weather just doesn't cooperate. Afraid to shoot it because I just might fall in love with it.

Price was very right, as in here's your money, no barter needed. :-o Most likely it will stay in my collection due to it being so nice, hard to ever replace.
