Description:
RARE SHILOH SHARPS OFFERING: 1874 HARTFORD COMMEMORATIVE MODEL, ONLY 100 MADE IN THE EARLY 1990s. One of the most sought after and difficuilt to find Shiloh models, the Hartford Commemorative was serial numbered B001 to B100. This one is B04X. All were .45-70 with heavy 30" octagon barrels with high polish blue finish (this one weighs a bit over 13 lbs). The lock plate has a silver banner that is embossed "HARTFORD MODEL."  The serial number on the upper tang is also embossed in sulver. Each rifle was also fitted with a non-catalogued heavy nickel plated crescent butt plate as was often fitted on early1870s production rifles (The original Sharps company was in Hartford, CT until about 1875 when they moved to Bridgeport, CT until they went out of business in 1881). Further, it features hand selected extra fancy walnut in the butt stock and forend with AA finish, pewter forend tip, polished screw heads and a Hartford Collar with silver band on the barrel. As a further option, aside from the standard full buckhorn Lawrence ladder rear sight, this one has a Montana Vintage Arms mid-range Soule fully adjustable tang sight ($481) fitted with a Magnum Hadley adjustable aperture eye disc ($110) and a #113 spirit level front sight that will take inserts ($192). It also has as standard double set triggers and case hardened action and lever. One of the most stunning and historically correct Shiloh Models. This one has outstanding walnut and is in like new condition inside and out.
