Cimarron 45-70 Gov 34" 1+1 (Falling Block) AS200

Cimarron offers a stunning reproduction of the iconic Sharps rifle from the classic western film "Quigley Down Under." This long-range rifle, known as the "Rifle Down Under," captures every detail of Quigley's famous firearm. Featuring a color-cased butt plate, receiver, hammer, lever, and the distinctive Model 1859 patch box, this replica is both visually striking and highly functional. The 34-inch octagon barrel is richly blued, and the rifle includes all screws and double-set triggers, combining historical authenticity with modern advancements in metallurgy. This allows the rifle to shoot both original black powder cartridge loads and modern smokeless powder.

The single-shot side hammer long gun is highlighted by a checkered walnut stock with a pewter-tipped forearm, reminiscent of the 1870s-style buffalo guns seen in the film. A German silver blade front sight and a Lawrence-style folding leaf rear sight complete this exquisite .45-70 caliber rifle, making it a standout choice for any long-range shooting competition. With a falling block action, 34-inch barrel length, and a fixed stock, this rifle is designed for precision and reliability. The steel receiver and 1:18" twist rate ensure consistent performance, while the blade front and folding leaf rear sights provide excellent accuracy. The Cimarron 1874 Sharps rifle is a firearm that combines historical charm with modern functionality, making it a prized addition to any collection.
