Description

Here’s a spitting image reproduction of the famed Sharps rifle made famous in the classic western film Quigley Down Under. It features a color cased butt plate, receiver, hammer, lever and the attractive Model 1859 patch box, that accompanies a richly blued, 34-inch octagon barrel, all screws and double-set triggers. Highlighting this silver screen lookalike, single-shot side hammer long gun is a handsome checkered walnut stock with its pewter-tipped forearm, just like the film’s 1870s-style buffalo gun. A German silver blade front sight and a Lawrence-style folding leaf rear sight top off this exquisite .45-70 caliber rifle.
