(M) EARLY FARMINGDALE SHILOH SHARPS MODEL 1874 NO 1 SINGLE SHOT RIFLE IN .45-120.

This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 12/11/2024

The original Shiloh Rifle Mfg. Co was founded by Len Mule and Wolfgang Droge who owned Drovel Tool Company of Farmingdale, New York, from 1976 to 1983. Unlike the newer Shiloh Sharps, the contour of the Schnabel forearm tip is almost exactly that of the originals while the newer guns are not even close. The early Farmingdale rifles are arguably the best reproductions ever made as to aesthetics. The barrel is stamped Old Reliable in box along with Calibre 45 3 1/4 (45-120). The left side of frame has the Farmingdale legend. Serial number is stamped horizontally so as readable with the attached tang sight. Finish is rust blue and case color. Walnut stock has plain pistol grip with metal butt plate and matching forearm. Also features double set triggers (working) CONDITION: Excellent. Shows as new with light handling. Bore is bright.
