Berthier 1892 8mm Lebel SN: B40769
French made (Chatellerault Arsenal) bolt action military carbine with a 17.75" barrel, bayonet lug, sling attachments, tangent rear sight and matching serial numbers between receiver, barrel and stock. Metal finish is grey on barrel, bolt, butt plate and magazine and the bluing on the other parts has edge wear. The front barrel band is missing as is the cleaning rod and the slot for the rod has been filled with wood. The bolt numbers don't match the other serial number. Bore is bright and shiny with strong rifling. The wood is dark and has many dings, dents and scratches with a cartouche from April, 1921. Condition is fair to good. *Modern Firearm C&R*
