1863 Sharps Carbine

A guy on another forum posted about finding this in his dads closet!

It has been modified to take .50/70 cartridges and he had it inspected and it passed to fire!

Incredible find for sure!

Wow. What a find.
Yep - almost as good as the Spencer carbine I read about being found in a grandparents closet a few years ago - clean, oiled and ready to go!
