A seller here in Canada has offered me this rifle for a reasonable price.

He has suggested it is a Model C, he is open to communicating, seems reasonable and has many positive trader raters and generally seems like a nice guy.

I do not own John speeds book and I have a few concerns. The lack of a banner or step in the barrel, the bolt handle has no markings on the flat and I thought Model C were generally curved? There is also the lack of markings.

Anyone have any opinions?
