Finish look original? Excellent bore for a earlier rifle.

A few minor anomalies (guard/bow don't match for color, slotted sight screws, large U on lower band) but otherwise very nice and seemingly correct. Not shot much since breechblock top dings are minimal. It MAY be an assembled piece, but nothing which would not be expected over a long life. Sling is almost certainly newer than rifle, but that is no big deal.
