Dusty Morningwood Posted September 5, 2022 Share Posted September 5, 2022 SOLD --- Added photos of original rear sight. Missing elevator, as is typical of Egyptian rifles! This is a great package that has EVERYTHING you need to get this antique Egyptian rolling block carbine shooting. The carbine itself has a very tight action. Barrel is 23.25" long with typical Egyptian markings. Bore is Very Good Plus. Missing rear military sight (but they are usually toast), but has vernier tang rear and hooded globe front sights. As the action is devoid of markings, this seems to be a gunsmith job. The stocks are very good and definitely from a carbine, based on sling swivels and forestock retainer. I suspect the original carbine barrel was a mess and the gunsmith repurposed an Egyptian barrel. The package includes a CH4D three die set (Retail $250), 84 cases,55 are new ($210 retail), 150 .446 385 gr lubed bullets ($90 retail), .355 gr RAPINE mold with handles ($70 retail), AND 20 loaded black powder rounds from Buffalo Arms ($106 retail) so you can start shooting right away. A great package in a hard-hitting caliber that is range ready. I MIGHT consider breaking up the package. $900 + Shipping. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
