No sights whatsoever. It is a .32-40. The inscription refers to a 1903 date. The action is a flat spring, which I understand was last made in 1908. But the number on the lower tang is in the mid-98,400 series. My understanding of that number is that it dates the action (or at least the tang) at 1910. The rifle has a straight grip stock but a large (?) Swiss butt hook. Someone has tried to put a palm rest on the original forearm, but only screw holes remain.
I got the rifle from Jerry Crozier in Cortland, NY in 1968. Jerry said that he got the rifle and an identical one (no sights, no dovetails) in .22 Short from an estate in Nebraska. I saw the second rifle. It was identical except for caliber.
