PROBABLY INDIAN/FRONTIER USED SHARPS 1859/63 .50-70 CONVERSION CARBINE
Description: PROBABLY INDIAN USED SHARPS 1859/63 .50-70 CONVERSION CARBINE, this is an untouched and unfooled with relic that has had no "faking" or "improving" done to it. Simply shows amazingly hard use with very saddle worn butt stock and forearm, metal is a deep brown patina, pellet prime parts removed from the lock, sling ring and bar removed, half cock holds fine with full cock not holding otherwise fine and functional with surprisingly fine but worn bore with light scattered pitting, front sight missing and has an empty dovetail slot, rear sight is a sheet metal buckhorn in the original sight saddle, wood missing around the upper tang on both sides with heavy saddle wear, frontier repaired upper tang so no serial number is visible (I removed the butt plate and forearm but found no serial numbers there- typical of military arms- I don't think either had been off before.), one tiny copper or brass nail/tack in top of stock ahead of butt plate, possibly an "N" or something similar carved in the right side of stock, wonderful history and character in this frontier survivor AND NOT MESSED WITH! SOLD Antique: Yes Manufacturer: Sharps Model: 1863 .50-70 SADDLE RING CARBINE Serial Number: N/A Caliber Info: .50-70 Condition: FAIR/Good Barrels: 22 |
