Description:
Serial #36624, .50-70, 22? barrel with a fine, bright bore that has a single minor blemish about halfway down. This three groove carbine has 90-95% of the original conversion blue remaining on the barrel which blends into traces of mellow plum-brown freckling along its length and some very mild gray fading at the muzzle. The frame has about 50% of the original bright color case-hardening remaining with the balance turned to a pleasant mottled gray patina with some spotty light freckling throughout, mostly on the right side. The sling bar and ring have a cleaned bright gray patina with a few small spots of dark plum-brown freckling. The correct walnut buttstock without patchbox has a crisp ?DFC? cartouche and scattered handling marks and blemishes in the original military oil finish with a few additional marks and bruises along the belly and sides of the wrist. The walnut forend matches the condition of the buttstock and also has only a few minor handling marks. The action lock-up is still tight and functions flawlessly. This is a splendid cartridge converted Sharps carbine in fine-excellent overall condition with a great shootable bore. Antique
