50-70 Farmingdale
« on: February 22, 2011, 05:19:53 PM »
Every once in a while, we all come across something that makes our eyes pop open with a "WHAT ? ? ?"  This was mine for today and probably several days...Just thought I'd share.

I just checked the link...it's the "Sharps 1874"  
First, I didn't ever think any other firearm than a Rohrbaugh was made in Farmingdale, NY. But, I never really thought about it either.  However, a 50-70 rifle... would NEVER be expected.  Let's see...the best, smallest 9mm available to a something that sends a flying bus thru the air...that's covering the full spectrum in one community. :o

I have no connection to the sale and probably couldn't lift it anyway.

I'll try again...by the way...this is a "different kind" of firearms site.  Good stuff...but run R E A L L Y tight.

Must be something wrong with the link.  Can't get it either.

I just tried the new one...it went right there to the general heading...click on the "Sharps" listing by Joe from Jax, Fl.
