They are low res pictures expanded on the web page, so tough to tell. Can't tell if it's original blue that's turned to patina, or if it's a reblue and blued lever. Top of buttplate to stock fit looks odd. Early gun, no perchbelly on it. So 1905 or earlier probably.

Worth a look in person, those pics suck.
