The classic Middle Eastern stock has significant wear at the wrist with missing wire inlays. There are several sheet brass repairs to the barrel channel. Iron ramrod. Bipod is obviously a later addition but appears to have been there for a century. CONDITION: barrel has a dark, mottled patina as does the lock. Lock is tight but hold both full & half cock.
