Shiloh-Sharps Model 1874 "Quigley" .45-70

Shiloh Sharp 1874 - The left side of the receiver is marked “SHILOH RIFLE MFG CO. INC. / BIG TIMBER, MT USA / 74-2624”. The right side is marked with the original owner's initials. This rifle comes to us directly from him and he said he took it the range one time to try it out.  The top of the barrel is marked  “CAL. 45” and “2 1/10” behind, which is the Shiloh way of saying .45-70 The heavy octagon barrel is 1.0” flat-flat at the muzzle and 30” in length. This is the fifle from the "Quigley Down Under" movie and is in almost unfired condition.

Sourced from the collection of a well known local historian and collector, this weapon has been well maintained and cared for.
