Description
1874 Sharps Old West Features The Sharps 1874 Old West Walnut model is inspired by a specimen set up by Henry Slotterbeck, a Wrttemberg-based weaponry maker who emigrated to the USA in the 1850s who, after working for several years at Henry Deringer in Philadelphia, founded Slotter & Co. The stock has brass details: on the right side of the blade a plate to be customized with some inscriptions, and on the rod the plates to protect the buttonhole that houses the transverse key for fixing to the barrel. The pistol grip is completed by a steel bowl with a turtle-colored finish. 1874 Sharps Old West Specifications Caliber: 45-70 Gov Model: 1874 Sharps Series: Old West Stock Finish: Walnut Action: Break Open Barrel Length Range: 30″ to 30.99″ Hand: Right OAL: 48.06″ Receiver Finish: Color Case Hardened Receiver Material: Steel Stock Finish Group: Brown Stock Material: Wood Twist: 1:18″ Weight: 11.46 lbs Barrel Length: 30″
