This beautiful copy of a Sharps 45-70 has seen extensive work by a competent gunsmith.

The normally 28-inch barrel has been cut to 24 and half-rounded from the muzzle to the tip of the fore end, cutting more than a pound of weight off the rifle. It is also equipped with a Vernier sight on the tang and a color case-hardened receiver. I have personally taken this rifle to the range and it shoots quite well. The double-set trigger is extremely light.
$1300 shipped to your FFL.

Nice rifle ! If you don't have any luck here I would suggest listing it on the Cast Boolit fourm.
 
Is that a different website?

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
