Yesterday was a busy day on the road by 715. Made a quick trip to Big Timber MT. Ate lunch with my sister Lucinda Bryan aka Mrs. Terry.
Picked up my 1877 Sharps in 45-100. 2.6 Sharps. Words fail to describe it.
Pictures to follow. After a bit over 600 miles made it home.

Barrel is 32 inches 1-16 twist 45-2.6 aka the 45-100. Flared forearm panels, Rigby flat, no dovetails, pack hardened, checkering, upgraded finish, left the wood plan as possible for strength in the grip area. Checked still butt plate, and a mercury recoil reducer.

Re: My 1877 Shiloh
The Shiloh 1877’s are special my only regret is not getting the Pack Hardened finish and double set trigger on mine, you nailed it Kenny.

Re: My 1877 Shiloh
Great looking rifle, congrats. Any luck finding brass? I contacted Starline several weeks ago inquiry about the next run of 45-2.6. No date known for the next run but they said I would be notified when it comes out. My order date was June 2021.

Re: My 1877 Shiloh
Dave I will have it at the Whiskey.
Dan O I have a couple friends that have set me up on Brass. But I too have an order in at Starline for 500 pieces myself. To replace the brass from my friends plus to have plenty for myself.
