Ballard Single Shot Target Rifle, NVSN, .38-55 cal., 32'' No. 4 Winchester blue barrel, nickel-plated frame and lever, double set adjustable triggers, checkered cheekpiece pistol-grip stock of fancy burl walnut, with horn grip cap and nickel-plated Swiss buttplate. Long flat-bottom smooth walnut forend of a somewhat less fancy grade. Condition is excellent. Nickel frame retains approx. 96% of its original finish with small loss to left side. Buttstock remains in excellent original condition with only light flattening to checks and very small fissure from shrinkage from left side near upper tang; Winchester barrel and forend are a later addition and barrel probably originated from a Model 1885 High-Wall. Forend is gunsmith made. Set triggers function as designed; bore is fine. Est.: $1,200-$1,800. (Antique)
