1859/1863 Sporting Rifle
Did Sharps ever make a Sporting model of these? Or were they all military? Thanks

I believe I read somewhere that they did make some 63 sporters but very few and if my memory serves me correct the actions used for the sporters were ones rejected by the military for whatever reasons they deemed unacceptable for their military rifle production
