Recommended Posts

1873 Springfield Trapdoor, 32” barrel, tight lock up and a good shooter.  $595 shipped CONUS.  FFL to FFL.

Believe manufactured in 1883 based on the serial number.

I've always wondered in what way JB used this rifle?

 

Can send more pictures if needed.  Thanks for looking.

Why FFL to FFL? Definitely an antique. No restrictions unless both Shipping and receiving states require.

Could you please post or PM me a clear photo of the serial number area?

On shooting the trapdoor - yes I have used it for long range shoots at our local matches. 

We go out to 100 yards here in CT and it does ring steel.

 

 

 

Wow, that's considered long range?!?!?!?!?

While that seems short, many of the ranges I have shot at in the eastern US don't have the space for anything longer. Some don't even have a hundred-yard range.
