Manufactured as a special order deluxe Model 1894 with standard markings. The left side of the lower tang is marked "8141 XXX" and "8141" is repeated on the buttstock and buttplate. The special order part octagon barrel is fitted with Marble Sheard beaded blade front, Lyman folding leaf rear, and Lyman receiver mounted peep sights. Mounted with a very finely figured, "H" pattern checkered forearm and pistol grip stock with a hard rubber grip cap and crescent buttplate.

Rating Definition:

Fine, retains 60% plus original blue finish, 70% original case colors, and 50% plus original nitre blue with the balance mostly a smooth grey patina, primarily on the buttplate and upper right edge of the receiver, which also has a few patches of light pitting. The wood is very good with some scattered minor dings and scratches, mostly crisp checkering, and retaining most of the varnish. Mechanically excellent.
