I just acquired a 1st model Newton Arms Co Rifle in 30 U.S.G. (30-06)two days ago, and man is it a piece of art. The 1st model was made from 1917 to 1919 and only about 4,000 were made. The buffalo rifle was made later.

For a rifle made in 1917, this thing is a real piece of art and craftsmanship. Six locking lugs forward and two more on the rear of the bolt. Controlled feed, claw extractor, double set triggers, folding express sights, and presentation wood. Wood to metal fit is flawless.

If someone can tell me of a free photo hosting site, I'd like to post pictures for you guys. I know you guys will appreciate the quality of this piece.

Also, What do you guys think this might be worth?

It will bo going on the block shortly.

you just got it and are going to sell it? Please make sure and post the pictures first, since I have never seen one.

If someone can tell me how to post pictures, I will!!!

Yes, I'm going to sell it. I bought a guys entire collection and I already have 6 rifles in 30-06.. besides this is just too pretty to go banging around the Pa woods with for nothing more than a whitetail.

Thanks

As you can see from all the photo's I still have some cleaning to do. That 50 year old grease is harder than the steel.
