Beautiful small-frame Martini-Henry action featuring stunning color case hardening on the receiver, breech block, and custom downswept operating lever, offering an excellent foundation for a custom single-shot sporting or target rifle project. The richly colored metalwork gives this example exceptional visual appeal, while the distinctive downswept lever adds an attractive custom sporting configuration. The action functions smoothly and properly and features an extractor cut for rimfire cartridges. Interestingly, the breech block has not yet been drilled for a firing pin, leaving the final rimfire or centerfire ignition configuration to be determined by the gunsmith completing the project. Additional features include an easily removable trigger assembly, a clearance hole at the rear of the receiver for cleaning rod access, and several additional drilled and threaded holes in the trigger assembly, potentially intended for trigger adjustments, although their exact purpose remains unverified. With its beautiful color case hardened finish, custom lever, and interesting unfinished features, this Martini-Henry action presents an appealing opportunity for an experienced gunsmith seeking a distinctive foundation for a custom rifle build.
