This is an original and unusual J. Stevens A. & T. Co. Favorite Model Number 17 rolling block or pivoting block single shot rifle chambered in the rare .25 Stevens caliber. The rifle shows a half octagon and half round 22 inch barrel with fixed sights and is correctly marked, "J. STEVENS A & T CO. / CHICOPEE FALLS, MASS. U.S.A. PAT. APR. 17. 94." and "25-STEVENS". The rifle shows a serial number of K59 which is marked on the lower rifle tang. The firearm also shows a hand checkered walnut hardwood forestock with matching walnut stock with no butte stock present. On the lower side of the receiver a large screw with lanyard loop is present, which acts as the quick take down screw allowing the barrel to be separated from the receiver for easy transport. The lever falling block appears to function with the hammer holding at the fire position, but the trigger not firing. Curio & Relic, FFL Transfer or NICS Background check required.
