The Chiappa 1874 Sharps rifle (part no. 920.002) is a faithful, full-size reproduction of the legendary buffalo-hunting rifle, chambered in .45-70 Government and finished with a case colored receiver and hand-oiled checkered walnut stock. Chiappa Firearms built its reputation remanufacturing the original 1874 Sharps design, and this heavy 32-inch barrel gives the rifle real steadying weight for long-range accuracy. A double-set trigger lets shooters choose a light, crisp break for precision shots, while the fully adjustable ladder rear sight and dovetail front sight make this rifle a serious long-range single shot.
