Description
Spanish license built The rifling and headspace is good. I think the upper piece of wood has been removed to keep the barrel cool.
UPDATE: I was able to find an upper wood part on line but it was not an exact fit. I had to take a dremel tool to get it to fit and cut a groove so I could see the rear sight. I also gave it a linseed oil treatment.

That's a cool piece of history you have there.

Reminds me of the Stuka. The name also points to Corruna Road South of Flint. What did the Geraldine Legion do? Were they before WW-II?

It's a fine looking piece and will give your years of shooting enjoyment. I have a 7 mm with a 1895 stamp made in Germany for the Chilean army, and she still can cut the black at 100 yards.
