Hi all, new to the site. I received an 1899 from my uncle and hope to determine if it's original or sporterized. I'll post pics when I get home. For now I'm looking for any barrel length and stock dimensions anyone can offer. My brother took it to a gun show and a 'collector' offered him $1800 for it on the spot, but that may mean nothing. Otherwise it is in excellent working condition and I fire it a couple times of year followed by a thorough cleaning. Any info is welcome, pics to follow...
