Description:

This pistol is similar to the Model T series manufactured by Tipping & Lawden based upon Sharps' patent. It features a brass bead front sight and rear sight groove, light engraving designs on the sides of the frame and the serial number "20" marked on the bottom of the barrel group, and walnut grips.

Rating Definition:

Fine. The barrel has 70% of the original finish with some scrapes, scratches and patches of oxidation. The frame is mostly bright with some gray patina and patches of residue and light oxidation. The grips are very good with some chips on the lower edges and minor varnish wear. The action is fine.
