Description:
RARE SHILOH SHARPS OFFERING! SPECIAL EDITION 1874 .45-70 “HUNTERS RIFLE.”
About 15 years ago, as a Shiloh Dealer, I contracted for ten (10) non-cataloged “Hunter Rifles.” Six were in .45-70 and four were in .50-70 caliber. I copied an example shipped to Denver, Colorado in 1876. .These rifles all had non-cataloged 25” round barrels with “splinter forends,” single triggers with crisp/light pulls, patchboxes, semi-buckhorn Lawrence ladder rear sights and blade front sights. This example also has semi-fancy walnut. Of the ten, this is the first I’ve seen since shipping them in 2011 and I received it from the original owner, it looks like he never used it. Weighs right about 8 ½ lbs and balances perfectly between the receiver and rear sight. It is factory drilled and tapped with filler screws should you wish to install a tang sight. The current catalog price for this rifle (if you could even order one like this!) would be over $3700. The last photo shows it with the original rifle shipped in 1876. A chance to own a superb hunting Shiloh of which only six in .45-70 exist! My price, $3450.
