C.Sharps New Model 1863 Carbine, .50-70 GOVT
Description: After the Civil War, most Sharps Carbines were converted to the new metallic cartridges in .50-70 Government.This was done by boring and sleeving the barrel with a three groove tube. Many of these conversions survive today.One of the interesting quirks is that the center fire cartridge conversions shot high because the sights were not regulatedfor the .50-70. Thus, a lot of shooters modified the front blade to bring the point of impact closer to the aiming point.This specimen shows that front sight modification. SOLD Antique: Yes Caliber Info: .50-70 Government Metal Condition: The receiver & barrel show signs of being buffed to remove surface rust yet, a patina remains to redeem the age of this carbine Wood Condition: The buttstock appears to have been sanded but, all the wood is sound with no significant cracks or splits. There is an indentation on the left side of the butt Bore Condition: Good strong rifling light pitting - 3 groove bore Barrels: 22 Stock: Uncheckered straight grip with saddle bar.
