The included factory letter confirms the serial number, barrel length, receiver engraving, and October 10, 1893, date of shipment on order number 1078 as one of nine guns shipped. Features a documented 20 inch riot length barrel without sights, 2 3/4 inch chamber, cylinder choke, standard "WRACO" monogram on the left side of the receiver, attached (not documented in letter but looks factory) saddle ring and bar on the left side of the receiver, and three-line address and patent marking on the lower tang. The right side of the receiver is engraved "Am. Ex. Co./44". With a two piece slab forearm and pistol grip stock with checkered iron buttplate. The left side of the stock has been marked "Robertson E.C." along the comb. Length of pull is 11 1/2 inches.

Very good. The barrel is mostly bright with numerous dark dings and scratches and some visible pitting. The receiver, hammer, and lever have a mostly dark gray/brown patina with some spotting. The sling bar has a pronounced dent in the center. The wood is also very good with numerous dents throughout, dark patina on the buttplate, and chip absent at the toe. A real piece of Old West history!
