This rifle from what I have been told has been refinished and is not the original caliber. The caliber it currently is 50-100-450 which is what is stamped on the barrel. According to my research this model 1886 was made in 1892 so it is classified as antique fire arm. The asking price may seem little high but the owner is open to serious offer as he is aware he may of paid too much when he purchased this firearm.
