Confederate Related Firearms

SCSharps.jpg (84141 bytes) S. C. Robinson Confederate Sharps Carbine.  Serial #376 with strong "S.C. ROBINSON ARMS MANUFACTORY" and "RICHMOND,VA 1862" barrel markings.  Brass barrel band and butt plate, primer free receiver and all of the correct features you'd expect.  A real beauty.  Call or email for more details. $ 22,000
LeechRigdonSide.jpg (2146 bytes) Leech & Rigdon Navy.  Nice, genuine, Confederate contract revolver made in Greensboro, Georgia in 1863.  It has the "LEECH & RIGDON CSA" top-stamp, ball and pin loading lever catch, and lack of safety pins, all in the correct  serial number range (#1116) for that configuration.  Loading lever pivot screw has been replaced during the period by a peened rivet (a classic Confederate make-do repair), and the wedge screw appears to be a replacement.  The backstrap and trigger guard's second serial numbers are both struck too deep.  Inspector's initials in correct locations.  This piece is absolutely correct in every detail and comes with a full guarantee.    $ 22,500
