Bore Condition: The bores are bright and the rifling is sharp. There is no erision. In my opinion, the bores rate 10 out of 10.

There are light handling marks. There are a few little spots of oxidation on the muzzles. The screw heads are sharp. The markings are clear. Overall, this rifle is in Excellent condition.
Mechanics: The action functions properly. The barrel set locks up with no play to the receiver. We have not fired this rifle. As with all previously owned firearms, a thorough cleaning may be necessary to meet your maintenance standards.
Box, Paperwork & Accessories: Included is a green Sabatti hard case, rail, and paperwork including the manual and test target with regulation information.
Our Assessment: This is a beautiful double rifle from Sabatti. These were made as an exclusive for Cabelas and only available from 2009-2011. They featured a 24″ blued barrel set, and case color receiver with boar and elk game scenes. It is chambered in .45-70 Gov’t and the bores are clean. This one has minimal cosmetic wear and comes with just about everything it did when new over a decade ago. It’s beautiful styling and great condition will make for a great gun for hunting or to add to a collection. Please see our photos and good luck!
Some are hot, some are not, but thankfully most can be shot!
