The 1859-1863 Black powder rifles were widely used in the Civil War. Taylor's & Co. is proud to offer sporting versions of the Black powder target shooter, in both the 1859 Infantry Sharps model, with a single trigger, and the 1859 Berdan Military Sharps model, with a double-set trigger. Two models of carbines are also available: the 1859 Cavalry Sharps Carbine with Patch Box, and the 1863 Cavalry Sharps Carbine without Patch Box. All models feature case-hardened frames and blue barrel finish, and are made for use with .54 caliber, paper cartridges. The 1863 Cavalry Sharps Carbine does not have a patch box, and it does have a round blue finish barrel. Finish: Caliber: .54 Barrel Length: 22"
