The C. Sharps Arms Co. 1859 Carbine represents a significant chapter in American firearms history. This lever-action carbine showcases the innovative breech-loading design patented by Christian Sharps, combining the mechanical advancements from his October 5th, 1852 patent with refinements developed through subsequent innovations. The R.S. Lawrence patent of April 12, 1859 enhanced the rifle's reliability and performance. Built during the height of the Civil War era, this carbine exemplifies mid-19th century American gunsmithing excellence. The robust construction and proven design made it a trusted firearm for cavalry units and civilian marksmen alike. A notable piece for collectors of antique American firearms and military history enthusiasts.
