I have a very nice 1895, old enough to not have the ugly cross-bolt safety but new enough to have the walnut pistol-grip stock. It has a hooded front sight and a fold-down rear sight to accommodate a scope (if you like to scope your lever guns). It is not 100% original, as I added a decelerator pad so it doesn't beat you up (much) when shooting hotter loads. For a Postal MO of $525, I will ship it anywhere in the continental U.S. where legal, either to your FFL outside of Texas or to your door if you live IN Texas. It does NOT come with the rail and hammer extension in the pics (I bought a GBL to put them on). No felons, please. :-) Happy shootin'!
Scroll down for pics (THANKS, Launchingrounds!)

No picture. That is why you have to preview.

Free bump.
That's a damn fair price for that rifle, this is one of the hardest to find configs and yours is in fine shape. I have one like it, I got here on the 'fire. You could probably get a fair bit more on GB or MO. That hammer extension will probably not work on the GBL, the 1895S has a different (old) style hammer.

Micro-groove or Ballard rifling?

If it's tourist season, why can't we shoot them?

It's micro-groove (I THINK), but even if it is, it really isn't as bad as people make it out to be. As long as you're not trying to stabilize bullets way over 500 grains, you probably won't have any problems.
