Item Views: 474
Serial Number:
Catalog Page: 162
Class: Antique
Description:

Left side of frame marked "C. SHARPS./PATENT 1859" around the hammer screw, right side "C. SHARPS & Co / PHILADA. PA." Blue barrels and brass frame. Checkered hard rubber grips. The 4 barrel cluster slides forward for loading. Rotating firing pin. Spur trigger and checkered hammer spur. The frame and barrels have been refinished.

Rating Definition:

Good as refinished. 95% of the refinished silver plating remains with thinning on the grip straps and a few very small areas of finished over minor pitting on the frame. The "C" and "S" on the right side frame marking are a little weak, otherwise the markings are clear. The replacement grips are good with light wear to the checkering, a small chip on the left toe and sun fading. The action is tight and the firing pin rotates properly.
