I was looking at a repro Sharps model 1874 rifle.
The peculiar thing was that the only markings on it were:
OLD RELIABLE, the Calibre and SHARPS RIFLE CO BRIDGEPORT CONN.
stamped on the octagonal barrel. The rifle is like new, and the stamping size is unlike an original.
The Serial number on the tang is 11.
Anyone know who made these?
Thanks,
Jerry
