Hanging it all out, based on the Roll Marks and SN, I'm calling it a US Parts gun.  Either way, it's and excellent example.  Cylinder shows signs of the action having been cycled several times at least.  Price isn't out of line with current trends for USFA offerings.

Your Move.

Great niece is graduating today, we decided to go to just the reception.  A lot less walking, I could OK, Rita would not.   

Because of a fluke we had to go to Costco on Wednesday, not the day to go.  Went early afternoon, first try no old people carts, so went to the Walmart nearby, came back and the same, went to lunch, place we chose was not real busy but most were, mostly old people though for what there were, half full and it's pushing 3pm.   Costco was the same, no carts, Took the Walmart plunder back home, had coffee and headed back, no carts, decided to sit on ledge and wait, a friend came in with one, talked a bit, second one did not come so I got a push cart.  Mostly made it, decided to test out a fancy easy chair, was nice, but way to expensive and Rita finished up and we paid, loaded and left. 

Mike its not really an issue... IF I see something that lights my fire.
and IF its a price I feel right and IF I have the dockets in the sock drawer AKA spare "CASH"
Then may haps my Gun-a-holic fever temp's rise...

T'was not the case today... well there is a rack of Milsurps, all consignments,
but the consigner is eh, off in the stratosphere... so they've been there quite a while.

I bought my first 1876 rifle in 1987.  Like Buck Stinson, I have owned about 30 over the years in all four calibers.  I currently have nine of them, all originals.  Three in .45-75, two in .50 Express, two in .40-60, and two in .45-60.  I am just the current caretakers of these fine arms.

As a purely defensive measure, remember to leave the "Plastic Fantastic" at home
