Good morning,
SN 1433 was a standard OB solid frame 44 WCF sporting rifle not a takedown frame. The caliber stamp is on the left flat which is WRONG. The hammer and lever are blued instead of case hardened which is WRONG. This is not an “all-original first year of production special order 1892 rifle.”

I would have to see the upper tang stamp to know that. A Model 53 would have a Type 6 tang stamp vs. a Type 1 (photos)
