Sharps rifles were a series of large bore single shot rifles that began with a design by Christian Sharps in 1848 that are renowned for long range accuracy. The rifle has become an icon of the Old West due to its use in a number of movies and books in the Western genre.
Our reproduction replicates the carbine version that was very popular with the cavalry of both the Union and Confederate armies and was issued in much larger numbers than the full length rifle. By 1863, it was the most common weapon carried by Union cavalry regiments.

Denix Sharps 1859 Carbine Black Finish
This replica has incriedible fit and finish. The ony ding I have on this is the reload does not open and lock when open to reload. But that is this Denix.

This is a functioning, well built replica. The rear sight functions like the original, and the breechblock does too. The weight is accurate as well. Very pleased with the price and very happy with the purchase.
