I recently picked this rifle up at a gun show. It is as nice inside as it is outside. Bore is perfect and the Mum is still present. Might be one of those from a warehouse. Doesn't look like it laid in a field or saw any use. The bayo isn't quite as good but retains the leather frog and is in very good, unsharpened, unground condition.
I was happy to find it at a reasonable price, along with a bayonet made in the same period of the war. Wartime cuts are obvious on both.

Thanks Harlan for posting the pics for me. (later)
