Antique Spanish Oviedo Model 1871 .43 Spanish Rolling Block Rifle and Bayonet. Markings: The right side of the receiver is marked "CROWN / AR. O. / 1884". The three barrel bands are each marked with a Crown over a "C" within a oval. The left side of the rolling block is marked "SM". The right rear side of the stock is marked with "OVIEDO 1884" cartouche, "No. 4917 / FO1895". The top of the stock in front of the buttplate is marked what appears to be "ESS" or "RSS" and "6". The top of the buttplate is marked "CF". The bayonet is marked with a crown over "C" within a oval and "6". The Spanish Oviedo arms factory produced rolling block rifles under a patent agreement with Remington. There are a number of key indicators when identifying these rifles. The receivers are typically stamped on the right side with the Crown over ARO over the date of manufacture. The fore-end is also attached with a cross bolt just forward of the receiver. The rifles were chambered .43 Spanish Reformado, the proprietary national cartridge for the kingdom of Spain. The breech block, hammer, and trigger guard are about .040 inch wider than the Remington counterparts and do not interchange. Also note the addition of a firing pin retractor in the top of the breech block. This is similar to the concept used in the Danish Rifles. The straight bar extractor usually has two down legs and the breech blocks show a double notch cut in the left side. The receivers will make a nice custom rifle keeping in mind the original cartridge chamber pressures. The Oviedo receivers & barrels are threaded with a V thread as opposed to the square thread of the Remington. Spain adopted the single shot Rifle in .43 caliber Spanish, known in Europe as 11.15 mm X 58 mm R9. Serial Number: NSN | Caliber / Gauge: .43 cal. | LOP: 13" | Working Order: Firearm has not been tested | Background Check: Not Required | Keywords: Firearms, Guns, Firearm; Ref: BD3301
