Browning 1885 BPCR 40:65 (Sold)
Lowered price.
I have a like new in the box 1885 with factory match sights and Lyman dies. Unfired condition with all the factory stuff like the sight box and extra apertures. The wood is really nice.
I did a search, and it looks like 1595 would be a really good deal (Lyman dies extra). I can send pics. I live in Central PA near Blue Rock Sportsman's club and Penn State. References available, transaction must go through FFL.

Please post a pic of the muzzle and the buttplate. Have you had the trigger reworked? How many rounds? How was it cleaned? thanks

I am at work now, I can get you picks from home. It is unfired, and new in the box. It was never cleaned, and the barrel is shiney. As I recall, the muzzle is stepped, I think it does not have the rounded concave contour. The trigger is pretty crisp, and I guess at about 2 pounds like a Anschutz 1710.Powderpacker wrote:Please post a pic of the muzzle and the buttplate. Have you had the trigger reworked?

Here are the pics. I tested the trigger, and it is 3lb 3 ounces, and crisp. It actually fells lighter than that, but the gauge is correct.

Sorry it was sold on the BPCR forum. I sold it FTF for 1620 with the dies, for your reference. I think that was a very good price for the buyer for a NIB rifle. You may want to put a wanted to buy add on that forum. http://www.bpcr.net/forum/ Regards, Ter.
