    1859 Sharps Rifle - Pedersoli

    **Thread Description Isn't Correct - I have tried to delete "Never Fired" but cannot**

    I have a Pedersoli 1859 Sharps Rifle that I bought from a dealer who had bought it new for personal use.

    He said he bought it around 2007 which agrees with the date code on the receiver.
    If you look at the breech block I think you'd agree that he probably fired it but the bore looks like new - IMHO

    There is one very small "safe queen" ding on the heel of the buttstock.

    Price: SOLD

    Thanks for the offer Chuck but I think I'd rather have an original Smith.
