Description:
Very good condition highly sought after original percussion ( not converted) Model 1853 Sharps Slant Breech Carbine fresh to the market from the Texas Hill Country. Known as the John Brown Model 1853 Sharps after the abolitionist's raid on Harper's Ferry. Nice working action. Lots of bore (very good condition and not dirty) and visible maker and patent marks. Stock is in very good shape. Honest wear and tear. No stress cracks. The brass hardware has a beautiful patina. Iron has expected light pitting and dark patina. The spring hinge pin is broken at the top slightly (see the picture) but the action works fine and the pin stays locked in position. SN 14653. These were used by both the Confederates and the Union. Very Nice Condition rare early model sharps for an extremely competitive price! Purchased originally from Brian Akins Rebel Relics. Compare prices and quality. You will not find any original John Brown 1853 Snarps for this price and quality.
