The Model 1892, however, incorporates a much stronger action than the earlier lever-actions and is strong enough to chamber high pressure handgun rounds, such as the .357 Magnum and the .44 Magnum. While earlier rifles and shotguns may have actually “Won the West,” the majority of lever action rifles seen in classic Hollywood Westerns are Winchester ‘92 carbines and rifles. The popularity and appeal of the Model 92 is quite easy to figure out. They’re great for the Cowboy Action competitor or for the outdoorsman who needs something light, handy and powerful. This little rifle or carbine is a perfect choice for the collector who wants to own one of er screen, the Model 92! “All our 1892 Lever Action models are supplied with Standard Lever, except the Mare’s Leg model which features a Rio Bravo large lever. All lever types are fully interchangeable, you can purchase a diff ferent lever to give your gun a completely different look and feel!” W of Brisco County Jr., The Magnificent Seven television series, “Boss”, what do they have in common? The Mare’s Leg*, made famous by the bounty hunter Josh Randall, the original gun was a modified 1892 rifle or carbine cut down to pistol size.

Nicknamed “California Joe”, Joe came west from New York to seek his fortune after a failed romance. Joe was 52 years old at the time he enlisted, but stated his age as 42, otherwise he would have been rejected. Joe brought to the sharpshooters a background of a hunter and gold miner which could have made enough fodder for interesting news stories but Joe was found to have a keen eye and a great marksman without any embellishments by the press.. 23 sharps collection sharpS collection black Powder 1859 Cavalry Sharps .54 caliber 1863 Sporting Rifle .54 caliber 1859 Infantry Sharps .54 caliber The “Hydra” system is a patented modification to the Sharps percussion system. The cartridge chamber is fixed, and the reduced thickness of the cartridges allow them to adhere perfectly to the chamber, dramatically reducing gas escape. Ignition hole is a tiny 1,2 mm diameter. The front plate of the locking block closing on the back of the cartridge with a spring, and an insert made of beryllium and copperr with a hole of 1.2 mm, instead of the open ignition cone, allow for a 95% airtight system. Black powder rifles built with this h system perform like a breech loading cartridge rifle, and leave very little black powder residue leaving minimal fouling around the piston. Furthermore the block can bee oiled after up to 30 shots instead of the standard 4 to 5 shots. 24 970.011 Floating chamber extractor for Sharps sharps collection 1859 Cavalry Sharps .54 caliber 910.014 This paper cartridge rifle features a 22”round blued barrel.

In the 1800’s most firearm manufactures offered “Custom Shop” services where the customer could order models with custom features & engraving. Custom engraving and other decorative touches brings an aesthetic quality to a machine-made firearm that not only enhances the appearance, but the overall value as well. The feeling one receives from owning a Chiappa Custom Firearm is no different from owning an artwork of the great masters. Your Chiappa Custom will be a true masterpiece and instant family heirloom. Most of our models can be purchased with a “selected” stock - which means selected from the standard production - or with a “Superior” stock. Engravings are made with laser technique, whereas Deluxe Engraving consists of a laser engraving with hand finish. The hand finish endows greater depth to the drawing the borders are beautifully defined. 1874 Sharps Deluxe Sporting Rifle 45/70 1892 Lever Action Take Down Deluxe Engraved Little Sharps engraved Individual, taylor-made custom finishing is available with us: the customer will contact the Chiappa Custom Gun Shop and we will prepare a preliminary estimate that provides an approximate cost for the project.

Our model features a machined 900 yard, long-range rear sight. This musket is the same as the 1842 smoothbore except the barrel has been rifled with 3 civil war muskets lands & grooves. This musket features a one-piece walnut hand oil finished. 1842 U.S. Percussion Musket 900.000 Both the Harpers Ferry and Springfield Armories produced the Model 1842 U.S. Percussion Musket in great numbers from 1844 to 1855. This reproduction is true to the original measurements, with a 42” barrel and a total length of 58 inches. The Model 1842 was notable in several aspects, mainly that it was the .69 caliber musket. Additionally, it was the first weapon made at both the Harpers Ferry and Springfield Armory with completely interchangeable parts. Harpers Ferry produced 103.000 while Springfield produced 172.000 for a total production surpassing a quarter of a million arms. This reproduction is nicely marked. The lockplate is stamped with Federal eagle in front of the hammer and vertically marked “Spring-field” in two lines behind the hammer. The lock and tang are dated 1847. The barrel is stamped with the correct style V.P. and eagle head proof marks are on the breech. The butt plate is marked U.S. The sling swivel is riveted as per the original. One piece walnut oil finished stock. NSSA Approved. 1842 U.S. Short Rifle 910.040 The U.S. Model 1842 was the last smoothbore musket, while simultaneously being the first with fully interchangeable parts (machine-made) and the first with an adjustable percussion lock. It was not made in great numbers. Total production of both the Springfield and Harpers Ferry Armories was only 272,565 over the course of 12 years. A few of these smoothbore muskets were converted to “Rifled Muskets” and a fewer were converted into the two band “Short Rifled Musket”. Often mistaken for an “Artillery” model, the short 33 inch barrel was a favorite for close quarters and mounted units. NSSA APPROVED 970.000 - Bayonet 1861 Springfield This quality reproduction bayonet is manufactured in Italy. Stamped “US”. Reproduced as per the original with high quality steel, in Armoury Bright. Also Available: 970.001 Bayonet 1842 Springfield. 30 US Model 1855 Percussion Rifle 910.002 The Model 1855 was the first rifle musket to be produced in the United States. It was manufactured at both the Springfield and Harpers Ferry Armories. It was also the first rifle to use the .58 caliber mini ball which revolutionized warfare by allowing ease of loading yet attaining deadly accuracy. The lock of the model 1855 contained the Maynard tape primer system. This system eliminated the need of a percussion cap (although normal percussion caps were fully compatible with the Maynard system) by using a roll of caps to ignite the gunpowder. These caps were remarkably similar to a modern day roll caps for toy cap pistols. These weapons were primarily in the hands of the U.S. Regular army so very few state volunteers managed to get their hands on them. Only about 7,000 of these weapons were made and they were soon replaced by the Model 1861 Springfield. The model features a full one piece walnut hand oil finished stock. The lock features a non-functioning, Maynard Tape Primer, lid engraved with an American Eagle. The lid will open and close. Later models of the 1855 were manufactured with some changes from the earlier models, two leaf rear sight, iron forend cap and a patchbox on right side of butt. 1861 Springfield Musket 910.000 (Rifled) & 900.003 (Smoothbore) The model 1861 Springfield rifled musket was the main firearm of the Civil War. At the end of 1863 most Federal infantrymen were armed with either this musket or the Enfield. This piece features a one-piece forged barrel; military style sights; steel butt plate, trigger guard and barrel bands; a civil war muskets US Model 1855 Percussion Rifle 2° model 910.034 swelled ramrod like the original muskets.
