WTS: 1898 Rifle with Criterion barrel SOLD

[Tom Butts]

I have for sale a rifle that I had a Criterion barrel mounted on. I will include all the metal parts for the stock and receiver except the front band and trigger. I did locate a sear and sear spring which I will include. The barrel was made by Criterion and has about 200 rounds through it. The headspace checks out as good. The barrel was blued by Glenrock Bluing in Wyoming. I mounted the front sight by fitting the sight stand into the dovetail and then threading a set screw through it to keep it tight. The receiver is in really nice condition and so is the bolt which is complete. As you can tell from the photos, there is an older Lyman sight mounted on this receiver. The sight works as it should but there is no pointer on it to show elevation. The stock is not in great shape but is usable . The previous owner put a goofy finish on it that I was going to take off and redo, but I dont have the time for this kind of work. You can just see a P in a circle on it but no other marks and there is an area of the stock that was cut out for a rear receiver sight. As far as I can tell there are no cracks in this stock.
$400.00 takes all, plus probably $25 - $50 for a case and shipping. Contact me with any questions.
