Description
6/9/26 - This is an antique Sharps & Hankins 3C Pepperbox pistol from the late 1800's. Featuring four barrels, each in .32 Short Rimfire that fire individually by way of a single action hammer with a rotating internal firing pin. Easy to conceal due to the size and small "spur" style trigger, these were very popular. The barrel easily removed by pulling down the button on the left side of the frame and sliding the barrel off forwards for reloading, which also ejects the spent cartridges. This one is in nice condition overall for its age. There is some finish remaining on the barrels, but there is spotty honest patina. Some spotty oxidation on the underside of the frame. Fitted with period-correct wood grips - honest wear on both sides. The bores are excellent for their age - mostly shiny with strong rifling. Comes with four ammo cartridges. Fully functional. No FFL required.
