Note: As in the original 1895 Saddle Ring Carbine
design, the clips that fix the top guard to the barrel
may scratch the barrel during the assembly/disassembly
process. To maintain the finish, only remove the top
guard when maintenance is necessary.
B UTTSTOCK C LEANING K IT P ROVISION
As was common with many rifles of the era, the
Model 1895 Carbine incorporates a compartment in
the buttstock just large enough to hold a compact
cleaning kit (not included) (Figure 5). This
convenient space is accessible by sliding the cover in
the center of the buttplate upwards. Whether you
choose to utilize the space or just enjoy this historic
feature is up to you.
