For sale is my M1860 Spencer rifle. I was part of the N-SSA about 20 years ago, and just purchased this Spencer (along with some other CW rifles) from another shooter who's been out of the N-SSA for just a couple of years. S/N on this Spencer is 9481. Couldn't find an exact S/N match, but 9501 was issued to a member of the 5th Independent Company of Ohio Volunteers (Sharpshooters) on August 16, 1863. The previous owner said that the barrel had been relined. It has also been converted for centerfire. I did remove the stock to check the S/N on the barrel and it matched the one on the receiver. It's in great shape with a nice patina. Looks like the rear sight might be a replacement. There's a very slight amount of wiggle in the lever. Not sure if this is normal, but I suspect so.

The number I've got in mind is $3600 including shipping & insurance, but feel free to submit offers.
