I believe the caliber is 40-90 Sharps straight. Correct front sight and folding tang rear sight. Pistol grip checkered deluxe grade wood is in near excellent condition. May have been lightly re-checkered at one time but looks great. Overall gun is in very good condition. Very nice shootable bore. Barrel retains most blue thinning slightly. Receiver is mostly a gunmetal grey with traces of case color in protected areas. Nicely engraved with scrolls and a buck on one side. Appears to be the work of Gustav Young.
