I bought a Sharps New Model 1863 Infantry rifle about 35 years ago, serial # C37174. It has a 7-point white star INSET into the left side of the stock, about an inch and 5/8 in diameter. In a small metal round piece in the center is engraved what appear to be the initials "HB". Other than the normal markings and cartouches, there is nothing unusual.
Does this emblem look familiar to anyone? Could this be from some sort of organization, veteran's or otherwise?
