Christian Sharps (1811-1874) was one of the best-known firearms designers and manufacturers of the 19th century. Although he never achieved the volumes of Colt, S&W and Remington, Christian Sharps was a major supplier of long arms to the Union during the civil war. His carbines are iconic among civil war collectors. Sharps sporting rifles were extremely popular at the time, and still fetch premium prices to this day. Christian Sharps had a rocky and sometimes acrimonious relationship with his managers and partners, and would leave the Hartford firm in 1853, returning to Philadelphia. There, he formed a new company in 1854, called C. Sharps & Co. He manufactured pepperboxes and single-shot pistols, while the Sharps Rifle Co. continued with long arms. In 1862, Christian Sharps formed "Sharps & Hankins", in partnership with William Hankins, who had sold his own plant to William Uhlinger. Sharps & Hankins would continue until 1866, producing their four-barrel pepperboxes, single shot pistols, and military grade long arms in competition with his former company in Hartford. Soon after the war, the partnership was dissolved, and Sharps would go back to his previous name of C. Sharps & Co. He continued to manufacture the four-barrel pepperboxes until 1874, when the firm was dissolved after his death.

Brass Casing Processing and Ammunition Reloading Business
For Sale $38,000 obo Willing to Part Out Brass Casing Processing and Ammunition Reloading Business I have for sale my brass casing processing and ammunition reloading business venture. Due to sudden health changes, I can no longer do this and have to sell quickly. Make me an offer. I have acquired all the equipment and raw materials to get the business up and running. There is enough brass casings to provide a return of approximately 25% to 40% of capital investment, at new prices. I have purchased all this equipment new, most of it imported from the USA, from Dillion Precision and Mark 7 to name a few, paying for all shipping and import duties. Due to these sudden health changes, I am no longer able to proceed with my home based business, and I have to sell it all immediately. My plan was to do this as a hobby, and take the processed brass to gun shows, farmers markets and other local and provincial events that I could attend. Processed brass does not require a PAL to possess and/or sell/purchase. Process brass that is unloaded does require a PAL to possess and/or sell/purchase. I am an avid hunter, sport shooter, and into long range accuracy as well. I was also going to reload my own ammunition with the same equipment, so I purchased the best possible for the most accurate and reliable brass and ammunition possible. I am not selling any gun powder, primers, bullets or completed ammunition. I would like to sell this as a package to an interested party. Breaking it up may make it less enticing to an interested party, but I may sell equipment individually if there is no interest in the whole package. Most of the equipment is unused, so it is in new condition. The rest of the equipment has limited use, to verify setup parameters and test end product for SAMMI specs and accuracy, so it is in near new condition. The brass is government issued, once fired, purchased through GCSurplus auction site. If you are skilled at brass processing and ammunition reloading, and are looking to expand your hobby into a small home based business that can turn a profit quickly, with reliable top quality equipment, this is what you are looking for. I have taken most of the guess work out of sourcing the proper equipment, providing all the operating and maintenance manuals to go along with equipment, with some resource books to help perfect your product. If you are part of a gun club that likes to process brass and reload their own ammunition, this is ideal for you. Please call me to view equipment, and I can answer any questions you may have. Please be aware, this is all high end processing and reloading equipment and it is not cheap to buy new. Yes, I am looking to sell, and yes I am will to negotiate, but be aware my price is still high, but not near the price you would pay to buy new today. I am asking $38,000 or best offer. Delivery and loading assistance can be arranged. Mike Logan 587-984-5851 mikelogan33833@yahoo.ca Edmonton, Alberta area
