Antique Status. No pal required by law to own or shoot. Ive shot it 6x, works great with video proof. 3 videos. Takes full length 50-90 brass. Not 12.7 or 50-45/5070. You can shoot shorter brass as a safety margin, your choice. Buttstock has a touch of rot/ discoloration near the buttplate, no cracks, no craters, no noticed repairs. Fires as ive shot blanks in it. It was 1/5000 remington recievers assembled in sweden (Stamped Remington on the TANG & barreled & tapped for the Swede rentension screws. 1867 original barrel & reciever. Made/ Born in 1867, half american, half swedish love child. Remington offered 5090 in smooth bore and rifled.
ive shot off about 6 primers. 5 fired in 1 strike, 1 piece took 2 hits. ***Barrels been set back, 1 full rotation which solved this 98.5% of the time. Id recommed replacing the firing pin if it ever acts up as its a bit irregular/ worn looking at the tip. Proof below.

Had this at least a year or more. Has the swedish block & hammer retension screws. From what ive seen the swedes used better wood, not as hard as american walnut, less prone to massive cracks, more prone to dings and apparently rot. Weighs approx 8.5-10 lbs. Has 2 sling swivels, one barrel mounted & the other in the buttstock.
No safety gurantees regarding LIVE Rounds as ive only shot blanks in it.
*** Main spring is strong. Has half & full cocked. Does not have an extractor, i have a few cast extractors i could include one for $25, youll need to file or sand it to fit.
