Hand select option. Barrel in mint condition. Wood stock in good condition. Some of the screws need to be replaced if I plan to disassemble the rifle on a regular basis. Very good sights and easy to understand range settings. Shoots straight up to 400 meters (437 yards) But I guess even longer, but have not tried that yet. All in all a far better rifle than I expected.

Just received my 1885 Martini-Henry. Outstanding !!! I'd rate the overall condition of the rifle to be 90 to 95% and have already decided to order another to use as a "Gunsmith Project" to sporterize. Most likely an octagonal barreled .45-70 Govmt. Can you say British Sharps.
