Hello
This little carbine was made in 1895 and comes complete with an extra proof that is not familiar to me.
Anyone know who may have owned it back then?
take care and thanks

thanks for pointing that out.
Missed it completely !!
you fellas be safe out there
As pointed out it is definitely the British proof marks. I am working on a research survey of the Model 1892 rifles and would like to add yours into the data. Could I please get the full serial number and a few more photos of the areas of stamped writing on the barrel and upper tang of the receiver?
Thanks so much

I will get the photos off to your email
take care and thanks for the interest
