Original U.S. Civil War Sharps New Model 1863 Vertical Breech Saddle-Ring Carbine - Serial 95110 - Unconverted Browning LMG the engine of his SpitfireOriginal Item: Only One Available. This is a very nice example of an original New Model 1863 Military Vertical Breech Carbine in . 52 caliber, serial number 95110. This features a later version of the Sharps action with an improved gas seal and vertical breech. The carbine has a nice aged patina on most the metal components, and looks to possibly have had arsenal reconditioning over the years. This has unfortunately made some of the markings faint.
