Description:
This model 1885 is chambered in the 45 cal Sharps Straight 2-6/10" cartridge. In the records compiled by Porter on the 1885 it shows that only 17 1885's were manufactured in this caliber. Not only rare but it has an exquisite bore! The rest of the gun is exceptional too with most blue remaining on the bbl. Some light wear to the high points of the octagons. Receiver retains about 70% on the right side and a bit less on the left side. Buttstock is in very nice condition. Good fitting. Forearm is also good overall. There is a small chip missing and a light crack. Condition and rarity... this gun has it!
