SCARCE Antique AMERICAN CIVIL WAR Era SHARPS & HANKINS M1862 NAVY Carbine
One of 6,686 Navy Purchased During the Civil War
Description: SCARCE Antique AMERICAN CIVIL WAR Era SHARPS & HANKINS M1862 NAVY Carbine One of 6,686 Navy Purchased During the Civil War Here we present an antique Sharps & Hankins Model 1862 Navy Carbine made during the American Civil War in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Made from 1862-65, the total production of the Navy Carbine was only 6,686, making this quite a scarce representative of a Civil War long arm. These carbines are believed to have seen extensive service aboard various vessels during the American Civil War. Being that they were intended for use on the water, the Navy carbine was factory fitted with a very tight leather cover to prevent corrosion on the barrel, most of which have long disintegrated. Though, this example still has part of the original jacket cover remaining. The shape of the carbine is distinctly Sharps (much like their pepperboxes) and operates a bit differently than other carbines of the era. The trigger guard doubles as a lever, which is opened by pressing a small tab inside the smaller loop of the lever. Opening the lever slides the barrel away from the recoil shield for loading and unloading. Great elevating rear sight and brass butt-plate. The original leather jacket cover still partially remains. The overall condition is good. Dark patina on the metal surfaces. The leather barrel jacket remains, in part. The action is excellent. The bore is bright with sharp rifling. The stock shows much use and remains solid throughout. Own the original! This is a legitimate antique and not a reproduction. Barrel is 24 inches. Caliber: .52 Rimfire Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING WORLDWIDE. Delivered directly to your door by express mail! Guaranteed AUTHENTIC & Includes CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY. ancestryguns $2000 #244034 Price: $2,000.00 Buy Now Antique: Yes Contact Seller |
