Description:
S O L D ..............This carbine falls 2 numers away from c9034 9n the 17th Illinois, Co. A..........Sharps New Model 1863 Civil War Percussion Carbine...LAYAWAY?...serial #C,9032, .54 cal., 22” six-groove barrel with a bright fine bore showing some patches of light oxidation and light pitting in the otherwise strong rifling. The barrel of this handsome carbine is toning to a plum brown patina with scattered speckles of pinprick pitting and spots of old light oxidation. The barrel band has aged to a pewter gray case-hardened patina and the balance of metal surfaces are toning to a blend of plum brown and dark gray patina with spots of pinprick pitting on the left side of the frame, spots of old light oxidation, and remnants of pewter gray case-hardened finish in the protected areas. The left side of the breech shows a clear “EAW” inspection mark, “NEW MODEL 1863” is visible on the top of the breech, and while the patent dates on the left side of the breech are partially softened, all markings are correct and otherwise crisp.  The walnut buttstock and forend rate about fine as lightly cleaned or as an arsenal replacement, as there are no cartouches or inspection marks. There is a small and unobtrusive chip at the toe and a few light handling marks overall. No pellet priming system.  The saddle ring and bar are intact. The action of this very fine Sharps Civil War Carbine appears to function well mechanically.
