trvlrmn 3 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 ACW, How long is the barrel on this H&R Sharps? Are you looking for a Garrett cartridge or percussion rifle or carbine? I have a Garrett Arms replica of Sharps percussion carbine. Are you interested? Far Country Traveler Quote Link to post Share on other sites

smokedawg SASS#60968 43 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 These are great rifles....love mine. Mine does not have the rear sight yours does. It just has the tang sight. I wish it did. Did you add it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Turquoise Bill, SASS #39118 282 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 The rear sight was not standard from H&R, someone added it to the rifle, it is required to shoot in some of the SASS long range military rifle matches as they will not allow the use of a tang sight in those matches. I have one of the officers rifles made my H&R in 1973. TB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Hoss 1,260 Posted February 28 Share Posted February 28 Mine has the tang sight. I believe They were standard on the H&R officers model. a 305 grn Bullet with 14.2 Unique is a nice load for this rifle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ACW 12 Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Not sure who had the rear sight installed but I thought the original owner had had H&R install it. Who knows 40 or so years later..... I'm looking for a Garrett Sharps now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
