Mr. Mercanto 531 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Hey everybody! I brought my Sharps Carbine to the range yesterday, and recorded some shooting! I thought perhaps some of the folks on this forum might enjoy taking a look at the ubiquitous UG:CW cavalry/skirmishing rifle. Enjoy! PS: I'm not a great shot... Part 1: The Sharps, and engaging our friends, the enemy (Confederate plastic bottles) Part 2: Close up shot of the barrel firing Part 3: More about the Sharps, and shooting generally. Trouble shooting new ammunition loads. Part 4: Counterattacking Bottle's Brigade, ANV Part 5: Wrapping up, interior of a Sharps round, and a few more pot shots. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Buford Protege 46 Posted May 31, 2017 Share Posted May 31, 2017 First gun I actually flinched from firing was a Sharps chambered to the government .45-70. The Quigley Down Under Buffalo Gun, not necessarily the carbine of yours. Maybe I'll have to upload when I break out my old Colt's Dragoon revolver. If I had to choose a civil war era revolver to carry, after using both the Colt Dragoon, Colt old Army and Remington, I would definitely carry the Remington. Have to love interchangeable cylinders. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
