1863 Shiloh Action vs the original

Post by Stonehill »

Is the 1863 Shiloh action the same as the original Sharps 1863 action? If not, what are the differences?

Thanks in advance for any replies.

The Shiloh action will except an original barrel, lock, breech block, screws, trigger plate and lever. Other then that it looks the same.
There’s no horse so dead it can’t be beat a bit more.

The Shiloh lock plate is solid and has no pellet primer mechanism. And the Shiloh barrel may not have the chamber boushing.
