    NIB, Unfired Garret Sharps w/ Box:

    I have a NIB Garret Sharps for Sale. This gun is as purchased back in the 80's, and has never been fired (cap, blank, or live). It has a very low SN 3XX. It is the only reproduction sharps that every incorporated a functional Lawrence Pellet primer system. It has the original box, and Palmetto Warranty card. This is an very rare firearm in this type of condition. I would like to get $1125 for it or best offer (This price will include shipping). Franks guns always had a good live shooting reputation over on the Shiloh boards as well for NSSA shooting. Just remove the removethis before the gmail.com in my email below and drop me a note if interested.

    Thanks,

    Chris Williams

    Re: NIB, Unfired Garret Sharps w/ Box:

    Folks,

    As an owner of a Garrett Sharps, I can say that this is an amazing opportunity. All too often folks on these boards complain about the state of reproduction firearms and how terribly rendered they are. In the case of the Garretts original tolerances and specifications were used across the board giving the rifle the sleekness of an original, especially when compared with the clunky Italian reproductions.

    This gentleman is actually asking less for a new in box rifle than I would for my well used one. If you have the means, jump on this. It's only the second one I've seen for sale online in ten years!

    Thumbs up Re: NIB, Unfired Garret Sharps w/ Box:

    Hallo!

    Indeed!

    The last one I seen, sold used for $1800.

    (Who regrets selling his for $1,000, but still has a Garrett Sharps rifle with original lock.)

    Dan and Curt,

    Thanks for the endorsment of product. I purchased the gun just a short while ago, but feel it would better serve another (esp. someone on this board). My impression would be better served with another arm. I am offering it for sale for what I paid for it and am not looking to profit, but pass it on to someone who will appreciate it for what it is. Just as a side note, it is a Cavalry Carbine.

    Steve, - you were the first to respond so it yours. I have replied to your email.

    So, you think that scrap in the East is rough, do you?
    Ever consider what it means to be captured by Apaches?
