This one seemed different than other examples I have seen. Swivel bands are small U. Unit markings are stamped on trigger assembly tang. Serial number 1696 stamped on left side receiver..the squared off chamber area seems longer. There is 1869 eagle head u.s. stamped on top of trap door. The stock has no cartouches and is long wristed. Side plate is only stamped SPRINGFIELD and there are no case colors anywhere on the rifle. The bore is excellent and the black finish is consistent. Butt plate is stamped U.S. with a 13 above. Feed back is welcome.
