Description
C. Sharps Model 1874 Sporting Rifle, .45-70 cal. single shot rifle. Serial #74-1520, mfg. Big Timber, Montana in 2001. Unfired. Wow, what a beauty! Gorgeous with its case-coloring and fancy beautifully figured hand-rubbed walnut stock. 30" No. 1 Badger octagon barrel for maximum reach to the gongs or buffs. Pistol grip, cheek rest, Hartford collar, Hartford nose cap, double-set triggers, steel checkered buttplate, tang sight, leveler, globe front sight with multi apertures. Wow! ALL of these listed features are upgrades on the basic 1874 Sporting Rifle and this is quite a package. Wood is to die-for with dark horizontal swirls and waves - very pleasing! You'll wait long for a rifle like this to be built, but here it is for immediate shipment from Cody, Wyoming. Gunrunner West item.
