Description

This M1863 Sharps carbine is a relatively early production. It's low "C prefix" serial number places its year of manufacture in 1864. It remains in excellent, all original condition, and is one of the few Sharps carbines to be left in its original percussion configuration and not converted after the war like most M1863's.

The stocks are in great shape, with no cracks, chips or other damage. A faint, but original inspector's cartouche can be seen under the saddle bar.

The metal components of this carbine are also in great shape with a good patined finish while all of the original stamps and markings remain crisp and legible. The lock fuctions flawlessly on both full and half cock. The lock plate stamps are all crisp and legible.The block locks up nice and tight with no slop or play in the breech.

The barrel and bore are both in good shape. Both front and rear sights are original and functional; unmodified. The maker's stamps on the barrel are still present and legible. The bore is good with strong rifling only a few areas of very minor pitting near the breech.

All the hardware is original and matching with a great matching patina and no rust. No military rifle collection is complete without a Sharps and this carbine has such a great history. Its sure to spark many a conversation among your collecting friends.
