Antique mas 1873 ( Excellent- Mint Bore)

11 mm French Ordnance with BRASS available. $1925 shipped anywhere. Ready to shoot condition, with TWO Videos as PROOF. Antique status. No registration . No pal. Made in france. Fires well in single action and double action. I've shot it about 40x. Comes with RCMP papers. Locks up excellent.

 After about 6-8 shots of Triple 7 or Black powder you'll need to clean it to continue shooting. Or it'll start to gum up with powder residue. 

$1925 shipped via Flat rate box with your choice of which sear. For less I'll keep it. 

Made at St Etienne Armoury in France. 

Repaired spur on the hammer. Reproduction ejector rod. Nothing missing. 

$1925 includes 1 sear. $2000 includes both Series G sears. Both guarantees it's use for decades. Especially if you clean properly before putting it away. 

** For an extra $2 a casing you can have all the brass I used to shoot it. 

Single action & Double action function with Non matching sear is mint. Times perfect. Locks perfect. Half cocks a touch light with the non ser matching sear installed. Has a series matching but later sear fitted.

 I've got the original too & I've shot it in DA a bunch with the original sear installed. Original sear is NOT light at half cock but engagement is weaker at full cock, as the original sear was WELD Repaired. 

Only pitting on the gun is on the left side at around 6-8 o clock. 

Series G Sear non matching serial #, Firing Single action . 👇

Bore is excellent nearly mint for 1877 production. G series stamped. I've owned about 8 and this has the best bore I've seen. 

Comes with RCMP papers stating all Mas 1873 are antique in 11mm & 455 webley. 

Mechanics 10/10

Durability 10/10

Bore 9.8/10

Cosmetics. 8.5/10

These were originally in the white a polished steel. So there is no nickel loss as they aren't supposed to be plated. 

Compare Nickeled at $2500-2800, functionally the same gun for $600-900 more. You won't find one that has proof it works for less than $1925, unless bore is rotten or grips are smashed. 

You can shoot smokeless in these. I shot black powder FFFG & Triple 7 FFFG in this one. 

Projectiles: I used .433 round ball & .452 round ball no notable difference in recoil. 452" round ball is more accurate at 50 yards, 150 feet. No closer targets setup 

Both Sears tested via live fire 14-16x each. I never tried live firing in Double action with the non matching sear, but on brass works mint.
