Lightbulb WTT: Springfield 1873 Trapdoor Carbine for Correct Grade 03A3 or Garand



Serial # 140345

This was my father's, he came in ownership in 1920. He never fired it! The parts missing were do to him removing them as a precaution when my brother & I were young. When Pop passed I looked close through his possessions but they weren't to be found. I believe he had trashed them years before.

Details:
What's here is all original, I have repaired & refinished the Stock due to cracking. There is Pitting in Bore nearest to the Receiver. I've consulted a few experts & they have claimed worth at no less than $800.00 as is. Also claimed it to be restorable & can be made operationable!

Missing Parts:
Hammer, Hammer Screw, Rear Sight, Barrel Band, Lock Spring, Lock Screw.

Broken Parts: Hinge Pin & Lock Spring Latch

Note: I have struggled with the fact of ever parting with this, planned on restoring it for a long time but I believe Pop would rather see me have something I could make better use of.
Also: More Pics will be made available soon!
Thanks for looking!

Again, Thanks for looking!
