Very Pretty Civil War Model 1863 Pattern Sharps Cavalry Carbine
Item #: CS476
This is a good looking weapon!!!!!It is an original and classic Civil War Sharps cavalry carbine. This is the model 1863 and is so marked on the top of the barrel. It also has the traces of the Sharps Rifle Company maker mark and Hartford, Connecticut production location. The lock plate has the clear Sharps patent mark and dates. The action works in all positions very crisply. It has serial number "96158" on the tang of the frame and it matches the number underneath the barrel. The Sharps Company marked guns over 100,000 in serial numbers. This gun is well in the Civil War production ranges. The barrel is full length and has the original front and back site intact. The bore of the gun has nice lands and grooves still visible. The stock is a furniture grade walnut and you can barely see the inspector cartouches underneath the saddle ring bar. These stamps let us know that the gun is a military model rather than a civilian purchased one. The stock has a great look. And shows wear on stock from where it was in the saddle holster.
