Description:
Own a near-pristine piece of Swiss firearms history with this Vetterli Model 1878, chambered in .41 Swiss rimfire. This pre-1898 black powder rifle features a 33-inch barrel, a 9/10 excellent bore with crisp rifling, and an impressive 95% of its original blued finish—a rare find for a firearm over 140 years old. Weighing 10 pounds 8 ounces, this all-original repeater sports an 11-round tubular magazine, matching serial numbers on all parts, and includes its factory cleaning rod and leather strap. Built by Waffenfabrik Bern, it showcases Swiss craftsmanship with a slick bolt action and adjustable sights, perfect for collectors or display. No FFL needed due to its antique classification. Priced at $729—reflecting its exceptional condition.
