I'm not sure what you mean about the trigger treatment, it is a standard military trigger although it has a very nice release. It has a 32" Pope barrel in 30-06 cal. This barrel is #608 dated 12/27/22 while my Griffin/Pope rifle in the other thread is #603 dated 12/20/22, he must have been busy that Christmas week. Especially since my Ross King/Pope is #594 dated 10/5/21. Only 9 barrels in 14 months vs 5 barrels in a week? Does anyone know details of Pope's barrel numbers?
Oh by the way, the gun was built by August Pachmayr and the inletting is supreme, like the wood grew around the metal. The swivels are both plated. It is a low numbered receiver in the NRA sales series but the bolt is an early 1920s NM bolt. It might need a new pad!

The other day a picture of the internals was posted and showed a roller modification to the standard trigger. I do not see that picture now. A mystery to me.


I sure do like the S. Griffin rifle posted in the link, that one is a looker.

Dan, your 1922 date would make it a Jersey City Pope barrel. Not sure what else anyone could add without Pope records that don't exist. I understand that Warren Greatbatch is working on his second set of books that will cover the Jersey City Pope barreled guns, but not sure when they'll be out? His first 2 volume set covers the Hartford, Ct. Pope barreled rifles, and is an excellent treatise for anyone who owns a Hartford Pope, or has an interest in Pope barreled guns.
His Jersey City barreled guns were often more modern actions like yours, and some pistols too. His Hartford barreled guns were almost exclusively 1800's single shot actions.

SKB, I have another rifle by Gus with a roller on the trigger but it's not this rifle. I'll do some photos of that gun soon.
