This early Griffin & Howe rifle is in fine overall condition with a 24” barrel with a banded front ramp sight and the rear sight removed. The metal surfaces retain the majority of their blue finish with the barrel address reading, GRIFFIN & HOWE INC. NEW YORK”. Additionally, the barrel is marked, “P.O. ACKLEY .276 NWT.” The action is a converted Model of 1917 Remington which has been customized with a Griffin & Howe side scope mount base and Lyman aperture sight (missing the insert) added. The magazine follower has been engine turned and the bolt handle is checkered. The finely checkered Walnut stock features an ebony fore end cap and is in very good condition with wear consistent with field use. The butt stock has a blank silver escutcheon plate, beaded cheek piece and ends with a solid rubber recoil pad providing a 14” LOP. The bore is good, the action is crisp and the markings are sharp. This early rifle is representative of the highest craftsmanship by one of America’s most prestigious gun makers. Est.: $2,500-$5,000. (C+R).
