Cabalero Chuck Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Going through recent article archive listings at GunDigest led me to this information packed article (some nice photos too !), and I thought to share a link with all of you. http://www.gundigest.com/gun-collecting-firearm-collecting/collecting-the-old-reliable-sharps-rifle I'd like to think that it is enjoyable to everyone who takes the time to read it.

Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Thank you for the article! I am a very proud owner of a C. Sharps "Old Reliable' 1874 Sharps rifle in 50-140 caliber. Though that rifle was never produced in that caliber, I just had to have something that topped Quigley's 45-110 in 'punch'.

Willy Whiskers Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Recently bought a Pedersoli 1874 Sporting Rifle. The cowboy who had it had never fired it. Over the past few months I've been gathering 45-70 brass, dies, moulds and the like. Yesterday I cast and loaded my first 100 rounds and have not even had a chance to take it to the range. This was a very timely article for me. thanks WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
