This is a pretty decent '65 Spencer that would fit equally well in either a Civil War or Indian Wars collection. This is one of the rare '65 Spencers produced without the Stabler cut-off and is serial #8809 .  The carbine has a pretty nice cartouche as well has 2 minor stock hairline cracks which are are fairly common do to the loading tube. The mechanism works properly and cycles as it should.  It still retains it's original loading tube. A good carbine for the money.
