Silver Creek Jack Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 I am looking for a Black powder cartridge camming tool for an 1874 Sharps rifle, hopefully someone might have one they don’t use any more. Any information on where I might pick one up would be appreciated. SCJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wagon Box Willy Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I have one from Sage for my High Wall, nicely made and durable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Cent Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I have a C Sharps Hi Wall. I use a dowel rod (doesn't touch primer) to push a stubborn round into the chamber. Most all that need the cam takes very little leverage to seat. A couple years back someone was making the plastic cam and they were not reliable. I do not know if this is the same. I don't think so since prior post says his works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boulder Canyon Bob# 32052L Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I have one made out of aluminum, I can't remember where I got it and my stuff hasn't been unloaded from my semi annual move. I'll look at it in the morning and see if there is a name on it. I have one for the Sharps and one for my Highwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wagon Box Willy Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 I believe that the aluminum one came from Arizona Sharpshooters which is now defunct. I heard that the son was going to open it up again but I cant find the website. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
