A friend has what I believe may be an 1895 model. The serial number is 34.4XX and it has a round barrel as well as a cartridge counter. The dark side is that it has been tapped for a scope!! Can anyone give me any history from the limited description I have provided?? David

SN is too late for a 1895, it IS an 1899.

Dante, all 1895's have serial numbers under 10.000. That's an early 1899 tho, probably from 1902. If it's a 26" barrel then it's a model 1899A, originally came with a crescent buttplate.
