CIVIL WAR Antique SHARPS & HANKINS 1862 ARMY Carbine
Description: CIVIL WAR Antique SHARPS & HANKINS 1862 ARMY Carbine SCARCE! Only 500 Made Circa 1864 Here we present an antique Sharps and Hankins Model 1862 Army Carbine manufactured circa 1864 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Total produced in this variation were 500. Made from 1862-65, the bulk of production including the more numerous Navy Carbine was still only 8,000. The Sharps & Hankins 1862 Army Carbine is one of the scarcest Civil War carbines encountered. The shape of the carbine is distinctly Sharps and operates a bit differently than other carbines of the era. The trigger guard doubles as a lever, which is opened by pressing a small tab inside the smaller loop of the lever. Opening the lever slides the barrel away from the recoil shield for loading and unloading. It has a great elevating rear sight and brass butt-plate. This gun has had the barrel relined and is in .44 Henry Rimfire, the cartridge of the era. This specimen is in very good. The iron has a mixed blue/brown finish. The markings are legible. The stock is smooth and solid. The bore is clear and in great shape. The action is excellent. Here is a rare Civil War carbine with a neat period conversion to the iconic .44 Henry! Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .44 Henry Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $1750 #8117 SOLD Antique: Yes |
