ORIGINAL US ARMY INSTRUCTION SHEET FOR THE M1882
HEADLESS SHELL EXTRACTOR AS ISSUED WITH THE SPRINGFIELD
RIFLE AND CARBINE, CALIBER .45: A two sided,
single sheet of instructions printed for, and issued
with, the M1882 Headless Shell Extractor. A scarce
survivor due to the single page configuration and lack
of binding, these instruction sheets rarely turn up.
This specimen has seen use, but is still full sized and
all of the text and diagrams are present and legible.
There are old tape reinforcements on a fold crease and
the lower left corner is separated where it was creased,
but the piece is still present and no loss of text has
occurred. Again, due to the nature of the single sheet
these instruction broadsides just don’t survive in great
number. $65
