Just saw a Garrett Arms 1863 Sharps go for $695 in a completed auction.Seems like whoever won it got a good deal. I am going thru a learning curve on Sharps so did not participate.

Depending on the condition...if good that was a steal.

the condition can be seen at GB #842786760. Two unanswered questions is bore condition and if Tape primer is complete. My big question is how good are the Garrett?s and was the chamber sleeves installed as the originals.

Fromm the heavy wear on the stock where the reenactor carbine sling carried it has a lot of miles on it. Most....not all(so hold the hate mail) reenactors don't take good care of their actions nor bores. At $695 for a Garrett that looked like it had been there was still a good deal as they go double that price without a problem in good condition. I've never seen a Garrett that didn't have a working primer.....did he make one??
