I also have a Sharps Carbine Cartridge Conversion with a serial number of 74667. Sellers book states that after the war several thousand of the old percussion model Sharps were converted to metallic cartridge. This one is a three grove re-lined barrel and has the DFC cartouche on the stock along with another cartouche that appears to read EF under the sling bar. Also has the patch box.
Anyone who might have information on Sharps carbines used during the war would be appreciated.
Happy 4th!!!
