In the Husqvarna catalog, this rifle is the No. 2. This should not be confused with Remington designations. It is a fullstocked commercial rifle in 12.7x44R (similar to .50-70). Cases easily made from shortened .50 Alaskan brass. You will need to slug bore or do a chamber cast to determine optimal length and bullet diameter. It has a 31.25" round barrel with excellent bore. Finish shows wear, but no rust. The rear sight has a broken leaf. Correct replacement included. Needs some minor file work to fit. I believe that the stock is Arctic Birch. Has some nice figure and is in very good plus condition. Horn nosecap. Has irs original cleaning rod with horn tip, which is rare. LOP is 13.75". Rifle weighs about 8.7 lbs. Very hard to find rifle in US. $1200 + Shipping.

This is a very good example of the.50-70 Type I US Navy rolling block rifle produced under contract at the Springfield Armory. The original Navy order was for 22,013 of this model. The first 10,000 were rejected by the Navy due to rear sight being placed too close to the receiver. These were purchased by Poultney and Trimble of Baltimore and sold to France during the Franco-Prussian War. This is one of those. Overall length is approximately 48.5”. The 32.5” long round barrel has taken on a pleasing plumb brown appearance with a few scattered small dings. Stamped “P” on left side at the breech. At the muzzle there is a blade sight on top and an intact lug for a saber bayonet underneath. A long-range, flip-up sight is mounted at the breech. The bore remains clean and bright with good rifling. The receiver is also bright with scattered light surface staining. The right side is stamped with an eagle over “USN / Springfield / 1870”. The mechanics of the rifle work perfectly. The two line Remington patent information is clearly stamped on the receiver tang. Butt plate is stamped “US” and the two barrel bands are stamped “U”. Sling swivels are in place and the cleaning rod/ramrod is complete with threaded end. The wood is very good with a few of the usual small dents and dings. A faint oval cartouche ESA (Erskine S. Allin) remains on the left side behind the receiver. A nice, clean rolling block rifle. Included is a very good example of the Ames export saber bayonet. These have the crossed cannons and anchor on the handle, but lack any inspection stamps. The blade is unsharpened and has scattered staining and very light pinprick pitting. The scabbard is intact, but has extensive age checking. Stitching is solid. $2100 + Shipping. Rifle only, $1750 + Shipping.

Here is another very scarce rolling block in the US. It is a fullstocked Husqvarna No 11. It is chambered in 24 gauge with straight rifling. The straight rifling allowed shooters to use shotshells without blowing the shot pattern, while providing better accuracy than a smoothbore with roundball. It has a 35.5" octagon to round barrel, as noted in the attached entry in "Husqvarna Jaktvapen 1877-1977." Has original horn tipped cleaning rod. These fullstocked guns are very scarce in the US. More photos on request. Will include 2 boxes of new Magtech brass for you to cut down. $1100 + Shipping. NOTE: I have two more fullstocked Husqvarnas I will put up soon. A No 1 in 12.7x44R and a Model 33 in 8x57R/360.

This is a nice example of the scarce Remington Rolling-Block Cadet Rifle in .50-45 CF. It is 1 of 1000 built from surplus 1867 Navy pistol frames. It has a 28" barrel with shootable bore. Metal has a plumb brown patina. The mainspring is weak. Someone flattened down tip of firing pin, possibly to prevent cadets from firing it. A new firing pin is easy fabricated. Wood is in good plus antique condition with neat arsenal repairs on both sides of forestock near receiver. Length of pull is 13.25". Cases can be made from shortened. 50-70 cases. A great addition to any collection of American martial arms. $750 + Shipping.

Sold This is a very nice, quality built side lock SxS. It was made by Tobin Arms in Norwich, Conn. between 1905 and 1909 when the company moved to Ontario, Canada. Tobin Arms built quality field and trap guns that were on par with LC Smith and Parker, for certain grades. This example is in very good plus condition. The checkering on its English wrist and splinter forearm is sharp. Stock has minor handling marks. A ventilated recoil pad gives it a LOP of 13.5/14.25". The 30" barrels are stamped "Trojan Nitro Steel" and are choked IM. Bores are bright and shiny with scattered light pitting or flaws from manufacturing. Chambers are 2.5". Finish shows some wear, but no rust or pitting. Very tight action. Points like a dream. Ships to your FFL or C&R. $500 + Shipping.
