Heritage Design, Precision Performance
Davide Pedersoli has earned a reputation for world-class reproductions of historic arms, and the 1877 Sharps Long Range showcases that commitment. This rifle blends the storied falling-block Sharps action — renowned for strength and consistency — with modern manufacturing tolerances and premium materials. The result is a rifle that looks, feels, and shoots like a classic Sharps while delivering the accuracy and reliability expected by today’s long-range shooters.
Built for Long-Range Accuracy
30" barrel provides greater velocity and a longer sight radius for improved downrange consistency and tighter patterns.
Double set trigger allows a light, crisp firing pull for precision shooting: set the front trigger for a feather-light release, or use the rear trigger in standard mode for normal operation.
Falling-block, single-shot action is inherently rigid and repeatable — ideal for precise loads and one-shot accuracy.
Blade front and rear sights offer fast, positive alignment; they’re rugged, adjustable, and suitable for open-sight precision at distance or for use as back-up to a scope (scope mounting provisions vary by model — check fitment).
Premium Materials & Finish
Black metal finish delivers a classic, understated aesthetic while protecting critical surfaces.
Turkish walnut pistol grip stock (hand-fitted) provides traditional lines, comfortable ergonomics, and a stable cheek weld for repeatable sighting. The pistol grip offers enhanced control for a solid shooting position and comfortable handling.
Precision bedding and tight fitting of the action to the stock help maximize accuracy potential and consistent point-of-impact.
Ideal Uses
Long-range target shooting — engineered for disciplined single-shot accuracy and minimal movement between shots.
Traditional hunting — chambered in the potent .45-70 Gov, this rifle is suitable for large game when used with appropriate modern or black-powder cartridge loads (follow local laws and safe reloading guidance).
Historical collections & reenactment — faithful styling and correct controls make this a standout piece for collectors and living-history enthusiasts.
Practical Features & Attention to Detail
Single-shot simplicity — fewer moving parts than repeating rifles, yielding a naturally stable platform.
Robust lockup — the Sharps falling-block is designed to withstand high pressures and deliver repeatable alignment of barrel and breech.
Care & maintenance — finished metal and quality woodwork make routine care straightforward; proper cleaning and storage will preserve both function and appearance for generations.
Made by Davide Pedersoli — a respected Italian manufacturer known for historical accuracy and modern quality control.
