I suddenly got that feeling I better make an exception, so we arranged to go see it yesterday. A deal was struck with the seller, but he also said he needed to make sure it was all "according to law", so we're getting together Monday morning at a local dealer to do the paperwork.
It's a special order deluxe rifle, with longer 26" half octagon barrel, and deluxe pistol grip stocks, with shotgun style stamped steel buttplate. Factory checkered, and original sights. Beautiful condition, with just a few small marks on the buttstock. Great bore too, which I don't see often on old .25-20 calibers. Serial number indicates 1907 MFG., so no letter for one this era.
So I guess I wasn't really done with repeaters.
