For sale is an original Springfield 1873 Trapdoor barrel that has been faithfully converted into a carbine length barrel.
This is a rifle barrel, that was cut, re-tapered & crowned. A slot was milled for the front site and a carbine style front site was made and brazed onto the barrel. After this was completed, the barrel was polished & hot nitre blued.The barrel is right at 22 inches long. The outside barrel diameter at the muzzle is 0.73 inch. The base of the front site is 0.77 from the muzzle. The top of the front site blade is 0.36 inch off of the top of the barrel.
The bore looks very good for +120 years old. It is shiny, has good rifling, but there is some light pitting.
See photos for details. We can e-mail more pictures if requested.
As with any antique gun parts, have a competent gunsmith inspect this part.
Overall, this a faithful conversion to a carbine barrel length. Thanks for looking.
