Title: Re: Old Family Deer Rifle

As Rich said, clean it up and give the bore a really good scrubbing.  You may be surprised.  It could prove to be a fun and accurate shooter!

Looks like a Marbles sight blade in a 1903 Springfield front sight base.  The 1903 base is common among cutoff sporters.   The model clearly says 1898, so the S/N is missing two digits where that hole is drilled and tapped.

Cheers
