Rare & Beautiful Antique M1870 Vetterli Cadet Carbine.
This single shot cadet rifle was manufactured in limited number by SIG. It had a one-piece wood stock. In order to accommodate the smaller stature of the cadet, a reduced load round was produced which used 3grams vs. 3.65grams of black powder, thus reducing recoil.
This item is in good overall condition and all parts which are marked are matching numbers and stamped with Swiss proof marks.
Completed with a very good bore and a Crisp, Dry Firing Action.
