Howdy gents. Hope the New Year is treating you well.
Here's a late 1910 production #3 Special, later called a C grade. Pictures are from warmer days. It's chambered in 35 Remington. One of these years Pennsylvania will get on board and allow semi-auto centerfire rifle use for big game.
In case you're not familiar with the forum dedicated to the 8's & 81"s, link below.
