The arm wears a factory special order Swiss style butt, the inletting at the upper tang is numbered ''642'' identically to the lower tang (642CF), the buttplate is not numbered but the inletting shows only factory milling marks and no additional inletting post-factory, additionally there is only one hole atop the stock inletting for buttplate tang, the tang itself is quite a bit longer than a standard Winchester crescent buttplate, were this a replacement there would be two holes beneath its tang, there is only one. The rifle is sighted with a Lyman No. 6 hunting front sight and a semi buckhorn Rocky Mountain-style step adjustable rear sight and the screws are present at the tang for mounting a tang sight there if one wished. Really a very handsome rifle, which left New Haven in 1892, it really deserves to have the barreled relined and rust blued. The ''set'' feature of the trigger does not currently function but is likely merely only an adjustment. A very respectable 1885 Low Wall that remains very handsome with much potential.

Lot #1057 (Sale Order 58 of 888)

This black-bodied clamshell holster remains in very nice condition showing scuffing and edge wear consistent with use, light staining and minor crackling scattered throughout.

The holster is not maker-marked and more importantly is not stamped with any Waffenamts or other acceptance codes which would be consistent for an item procured outside of the formal military system such as by the SS. Also included is an unmarked rather crude Luger tool showing light oxidation staining and moderate overall wear. This rare holster is an excellent find for the collector of Second World War German militaria. (138944-12A)

There appears to be a cleaning rod present in the butt but the door trap is jammed and a rudimentary canvas sling is included that is likely original to the gun. Documented Vietnam bringback firearms are scarce and this rifle will make a great addition to any military collection. (209021-13) {C&R}

Colt Bisley Single Action Army Revolver with King Gunsite Modifications

Lot #1158 (Sale Order 159 of 888)

serial #269675, 38 Special, 5 3/8'' later factory replacement barrel with an excellent bore. This 1905-made revolver retains about 80-85% original blue and case-hardened colors with some thinning of the grip frame, lightly cleaned oxidized pitting on the left side of the barrel, other scattered light oxidation, edge wear and a turn ring on the later replacement factory cylinder. The cylinder is marked M701 but does not match the assembly numbers on the frame and has a Rampant Colt on the face. The case-hardened colors on the frame are thinning to pewter around the recoil shield and portions of the frame, the rest still showing strong to robust colors. The checkered hard rubber grips with Rampant Colt are numbered to another gun and rate about excellent overall with a few light handling marks. Sadly, there is a small crack in the frame extending from the trigger screw to the edge of the frame plus the frame is very slightly distended in the area of the crack and the first notch on the hammer is rounded. The gun features a King reflector Patridge front sight, King fully adjustable black blade rear sight and modified hammer by an unknown gunsmith. The face of the hammer was machined flat and a square stud or frame stop added to the top (think a pronounced version of the Ruger New Model Blackhawk hammer profile without the step), a spring-loaded frame mounted firing pin added and the sides of the hammer engine turned. This system was probably used with the thought of more consistent ignition but it is not a transfer bar safety system and the safety precaution of lowering the hammer on an empty chamber should still be adhered to. A nice upstart collectible for the Colt or King Gunsight enthusiast. (87493-38) {C&R}

Lot #1375 (Sale Order 376 of 888)

serial #8801J, 8x50mmR, 20'' barrel with a bright very good plus bore showing frosting in the grooves but strong rifling throughout. The metal surfaces of this Gendarmerie carbine are mostly a smooth blue-gray patina toning to brown under bright light in some areas and showing some small spots of light oxidation staining and freckling. The bolt is a mix of gunmetal and light gray patina showing some overall freckling. Some of the markings have softened from the years but are still mostly visible. There are eagle proofs on the right side receiver and breech, the barrel is 1892 acceptance-dated and there is an ''A'' at the heel of the buttplate. The smooth pistolgrip walnut stock with finger grooves is numbered to a different gun (9911O) although this number has been crossed out.

The bolt is properly un-numbered with the appropriate round cocking knob, the barrel is mismatched numbered ''8863G'' but has certainly been with this receiver for a long time, what appears to be an original brown leather sling is included showing some overall crackling and light staining and the carbine seems to function well mechanically. A very fine example overall of these rare and early Austrian carbines, all the more desirable in that it has not been updated to the later cartridge.

The action retains about 90% original bright blue showing some moderate high edge wear, scattered scratches and most of the loss due to flaking along the lever to gray patina.

The handguard has been removed and the finger groove forend has been cut down and competently reshaped into a slight schnabel. The forend remains in otherwise very good plus condition showing mostly worn finish, small scratches and dings. The front sight is a taller blade on an added base and is a little loose in its dovetail but the action seems to function very well mechanically.

Unusual BÙchel Patent German Schuetzen Rifle by Kohler

Lot #1690 (Sale Order 691 of 888)

serial #1064, 8.15x46, 31 1/2'' octagon barrel with a bright about excellent bore which shows the beginnings of some very light frosting in the grooves. This is a very interesting BÙchel patent rifle, it exhibits all of the characteristics of a normal Schuetzen cartridge rifle from the pre-World War-era but with an interesting addition not previously noted, the arm features a thumb safety, on the right-side thumb rest, of the Schuetzen buttstock. The barrel retains about 95% original blue, the balance evenly fading to a pleasing smooth plum with toning to pewter on the high edges and contact points. The frame is an overall pewter gunmetal gray patina with smatterings of plum brown oxidation with some scattered spots of very light pinprick pitting, its top flat neatly matted, the frame to the rear of the breech block reading ''BÙchel/Meister/DRGM''. The bottom metal and the generous finger spur lever are similar showing some mottled scattered case-hardening but primarily a plum-brown. The diminutive pistolgrip at the bottom of the lever shows extremely nice checkered horn pistolgrip panels which rate very good plus and are maker-marked along with the patent marking. The Schuetzen stock rates very good to perhaps fine showing overall minor dings and handling marks from the years but most of the edges remaining sharp and crisp, the checkering showing some light wear, with nice stippling on the right-side thumb rest. Forearm is smooth rating perhaps near very good showing a bit more wear, handling marks and a few repairs. The rifle is sighted with a simple lollipop front with large semi-circular protective ears (the lollipop insert is missing), male dovetail rear on rib, for clamp-on open sight (again no such sight is present), and the frame shows a base for a diopter-style rear sight which again is not present. The double set triggers require some very minor manipulation to work, but do so properly with a bit of help. The arm, while showing its age somewhat is quality-made throughout and appears to have been proved last in 1910. (39001-4) {C&R}

Unmarked Contemporary Flintlock Long Rifle

Lot #1691 (Sale Order 692 of 888)

The barrel is an even maker-applied plum brown with pewter undertones and wear on the high edges. It features a simple German silver blade front sight and flattop-top rear with a very light incise engraved ''WF'' near the pan. The lockplate and the swan neck cock are a pewter and brown oxidized patina with the bridled frizzen showing evidence of having been fired, also with light oxidation. The arm shows a simple brass nosecap, faceted ramrod thimbles and tailpipe with a faceted bow on the dovetail triggerguard. There is a somewhat ornate sideplate, oddly with holes for two screws but only one is present, indeed the lockplate is drilled only for a single screw. There is a pierced, slightly rudimentary four piece patchbox, it has a bottom release in the simple German silver toeplate. The very wide buttplate is faceted, all the brass being a goldenrod patina. The curly walnut stock was done by an artist of some talent but still learning his craft. There is an incise carved rib the full-length of the ramrod channel, light carving at the rear of the ramrod tailpipe and around the tang, with light island carving around both stock flats. There are German silver inlays at the barrel pins and a star-shaped German silver inlay on the squarish cheekpiece, with open flowing relief-carved foliate scroll flanking cheekpiece front and rear. Features double set triggers and a single-acting lock, a very good long rifle with an attractive look which would be excellent for the November woods. (39019-6) {ANTIQUE}

The screw heads show some minor wear, the markings are still quite clear and the barrel rib is marked ''MODEL of 91'' flanked by the address and patent dates. The black checkered hard rubber extension grips remain in very good plus condition showing some scattered scuffs, some added crosshatching on the base of the left panel and what appears to be an inventory number ''25'' on the base of the right panel. The right panel is pencil-numbered to the gun and all of the appropriate parts are matching. Barrel-to-frame fit is solid, the hammer functions crisply and the pistol is marked with British commercial proofs and ''NOT BRITISH MAKE'' on the left side barrel and frame. Included is an attractive custom mahogany case that features a form-fitted cutout for the pistol, key and space for 22 cartridges. Te underside of the case features a dovetailed panel that holds a cleaning rod and the exterior shows some lightly flaking varnish, small dings and appears to be missing some additional hardware on either side of the lock escutcheon. The case certainly has some ''British flair'' to it. Still an attractive example very possibly refinished in England. (138840-78) {C&R} [Roy Jinks Collection]

Besides the unique and rather grim grip panels these revolvers are mechanically interesting due to their early rendition of a swing-out cylinder. The front sight on this example appears to be a period repair and the action is functional with good timing and lockup. A fine and somewhat macabre revolver for the collector of arms curiosa.

The barrel is a dull brown patina with scattered traces of original blue and some freckling, while the bands are a gray patina with some light oxidation. The receiver, sideplate and magazine box are a dull gray patina with traces of the original oil quenched colors and some scattered oxidation. The triggerguard is a silver pewter with scattered oxidation. The walnut stock rates about very good with a crisp 1902 dated cartouche, a crisp circled ''P'' firing proof, a faint yellow paint rack number on the butt, a couple cracks at the front of handguard forming into a chip, a few dings and scattered handling marks. The rifle is equipped with a 1901 rear sight and a 1901 handguard. A solid example of a late production Krag rifle. (209026-5) {C&R}

German P.08 Luger by DWM

Lot #1868 (Sale Order 869 of 888)

serial #2727w, 9mm, 4'' barrel with a very good plus bore that shows some light pitting. The barrel is unmarked and it retains 99% of its blue finish. The other parts are mostly a dull gray patina with a couple small spots of pitting on the right side, a chipped area of the left side of trigger, a repair to the takedown lever, some grind marks and a repair to the left front slide rail. The checkered grips rate good showing some flattening points, a small crack on top of the right panel, dings and handling marks. The barrel extension is dated 1911, the toggle is DWM marked and the parts are mismatched. A single wooden base magazine is included with this pistol. A good entry level Luger for the budding collector. (209020-11) {C&R}

U.S. Model 1903 Bolt Action Rifle by Springfield Armory

Lot #1869 (Sale Order 870 of 888)

serial #721536, 30-06, 24'' 1-41 dated Springfield barrel with a fair bore that shows pitting throughout but visible rifling. The metal surfaces retain 50% arsenal parkerized finish with overall fading to gray, some silvering and a few spots of oxidation. The two-bolt walnut stock rates about very good with an added oil finish, a faint circled ''P'' firing proof on pistolgrip, overall dings and handling marks from the years. The parts are of mixed USGI manufacture with the bottom metal being from a later 1903A3 rifle and no front floorplate screw is present. As with all low-numbered 1903 rifles no thought should be given to the loading or firing of this rifle. A good example for the budding U.S. military collector. (209049-1) {C&R}

U.S. Model 1898 Krag Bolt Action Carbine by Springfield Armory

Lot #1870 (Sale Order 871 of 888)

serial #144048, 30-40 Krag, 22'' barrel with a good plus bore that shows several patches of pitting but strong rifling. The barrel and band retain 50% arsenal blue with overall fading to gray. The receiver, sideplate and magazine box are turning to a gray patina with some traces of oil quenching and a few spots of oxidation staining. The triggerguard is a silver pewter that shows some light oxidation staining. The walnut stock rates very good plus as-cleaned with a few minor handling marks. This carbine falls outside of the accepted serial number range for 1898 carbines, it is equipped with a 1901 rifle rear sight and a 1901 carbine handguard. The 1898 carbine is one of the hardest Krag models to authenticate, this model may be legitimate carbine or perhaps it is a DCM or commercial assembled. An interesting Krag for the military collector. (208944-15) {ANTIQUE}

Uruguayan M1902 Remington Rolling Block Carbine

Lot #1871 (Sale Order 872 of 888)

serial #293, 7mm, 20 1/2'' barrel with a very good bore that shows scattered frosting. The metal surfaces are a dull brown patina with a couple spots of light pitting on the action and on barrel and a few areas of oxidation staining. The hardwood stock rates very good with an older added varnish, a partially faded Uruguayan roundel, the beginnings of a couple hairline cracks behind the upper tang, scattered dings and handling marks. The carbine is equipped with a saddle ring and an adjustable rear sight. A solid example of these late model Rolling Block carbines. (209026-3) {C&R}

Early Chinese SKS Semi-Auto Rifle by Jianshe Arsenal

Lot #1872 (Sale Order 873 of 888)

serial #8169934, 7.62x39, 20'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces of this ''Triangle 26'' marked rifle have an overall silvery-gray appearance with areas of cleaned pitting most prominent on the topcover, some oxidation stain spots and scattered traces of original blue. The Asian hardwood stock rates good with a couple chips that appear to be from shrapnel, a couple in-the-grain cracks on the left side, scattered flaking shellac, dings and handling marks. All serialized parts are matching and there are no import markings. This SKS is most certainly a bringback from Vietnam but there is no paperwork to prove it, as it is a mid-1960's production gun, there is battle damage and the metal condition is consistent with other guns used in Southeast Asia. There is no buttplate trapdoor present on this rifle. A solid early Chicom SKS that most certainly was used by the Viet Cong or North Vietnamese Army. (208937-209) {C&R} [Cletus Klein Collection]

Remington Model 600 Bolt Action Carbine

Lot #1873 (Sale Order 874 of 888)

serial #28789, 222 Remington, 18'' barrel with a bright excellent bore. The metal surfaces retain 97% original blue with a few small specks of light oxidation. The checkered walnut Monte Carlo pistolgrip stock rates very good with a few spots of flaking, some dings and handling marks. The Remington buttplate shows some scuffing and flaking from the years. The three scope holes on the receiver are now devoid of screws and there is wear where a scope mount once was. A solid little carbine that will likely prove to be a good varmint gun. (209020-1) {MODERN}
