Featuring a 31-inch free-floating barrel, an overall length of 51.3 inches, the Model 1889 was renowned for its innovative straight-pull action and exceptional Swiss craftsmanship. Because this rifle qualifies as an antique, it is generally not subject to the same federal transfer requirements as modern firearms in the United States, although state and local laws may still apply. This particular example is being sold as a gunsmith special due to missing components, including the magazine release and charging handle knob, and is rated in Fair to Poor surplus condition. Sold "as is," it should be viewed primarily as a restoration project, source of original parts, or collectible piece rather than a firearm ready for immediate use.
