Santee, having suffered from serious depression for years you have no idea how many of my days your channel made so much better - even if just for a few minutes to regain some energy and fun... Thank you so much for that, and keep on the great work - I love the AZ Ghostriders, man!!! 😍 😍 😍

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Felix, that makes me feel just great. Thanks for sharing what the channel means to you.

[@GunsOfTheWest]

That rifle looks awesome! Also, I’m glad no T-rexes were harmed in the making of this video. LOL!

Sometimes one shot is all you need.

[@brianfuller757]

The .45-100 could easily hit a target at 1000 yds and was reasonably accurate at 1300 yds. This was a beast of a rifle. This rifle was legendary for reason.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Yep!

I always wanted a 1892 Winchester like Chuck Conners in the rifleman. It was my dad's favorite show and now it's one of mine.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Heckuva show. I actually like it better than "Have Gun Will Travel".

[@MercyMinister]

Andrew, what does your comment have to do with this great video?

[@harrymills2770]

@@ArizonaGhostriders "Have Gun..." tried to be cultured. It was more of an acquired taste, which made Paladin more fun to watch, later in life, after I'd had more life experience and improved my understanding of history. He makes jokes I wouldn't've got, 20 or 30 years ago, before I acquainted myself with Archimedes or Plato. "Have Gun..." has legs, in that sense. It's fun to come back to, many years later, and watch it from an older person's perspective. All that being said, Chuck Connors workin' an 1892 with one hand is iconic. Tall, strong man with that light "short rifle" is a lot of fun to watch. But I always go back to when the first Henry rifles came into use. Long, heavy rifle. More like the Sharps in that way. And I think they held more rounds. When I see a Winchester lever action, I think 30-30. But I'm gonna check out what they were using for ammo in the 1892.

[@snoman003]

I have 2 Shiloh Sharps rifles, a 50-70 and a 45-110 Quigley and absolutely love them. Although, there is a steep learning curve, to acquire the lost knowledge required to make these fine rifles shoot accurately.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Really? A steep learning curve? I didn't know.

[@snoman003]

@@ArizonaGhostriders Well, not you guys...my comment was aimed at those who were thinking of getting into firing these fine rifles, where cartridges "may not" be readily available, in their specific calibre. Having said that, please don't send the T-rex to discipline me...again.

[@jeepsblackpowderandlights4305]

@@snoman003 thats why my sharps quigley is in 45-70.. not the 45-120 of the movie.. 45-70 is available all over.. some people claim my rifle isnt a quigley.,.. but it is 34 inchs, silver top on end of stock.. powder tray and so forth.. even says down under edition on it.. but im glad its 45-70.. i can go to any ammo shop and get ammo for it

[@seamus6387]

I've always had the opinion that some of the sharpshooters back then where probably better than most realize these days. As had a friend who grew up dirt poor put it this way, "I had to learn to shoot. With dad working I had to hunt. Shoot more than 3 bullets and have no meat and I'd have to go cut a switch." Being hungry can make you learn a skill quick.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Annie Oakley had to kill what she shot at or they wouldn't eat. Plenty of those stories in early America!

[@rs-bi8yf]

Is that what they call a long shot at comedy ? Thanks for another great video

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

HA! Yes. Although, I feel I really hit the mark.

[@brianfuller7691]

The carbine gained legend status during U.S. Civil War and was popular even post war. Rifle was an iconic sharpshooter arm with both hunters and target shooters. As well, widely used by military sharpshooters.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Yup.

[@freyatilly]

Love the humour guys. Nice little clippet of this most iconic rifle. Gonna get me one o' them.

[@ollilehtonen2762]

That's one fine firearm. There is also a famous scene in the fil Valdez is Coming depicting the might of Sharps. One of the most memorable moments in Western film history.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

I was going to use a clip from that, but couldn't find a good high def version.

[@hamm6035]

Bill Dixon has always inspired me to become a better shot with a rifle. And Bill Hickok with cap & ball pistols. I have a nice Sharps in 45/70, and a fair collection of cap & ball pistols. It's something to score impressive shots with this older tech. because a lot of people seem to dismiss them when it comes to accuracy and lethality. Great post guys, thanks for all the work you put into your videos.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

I appreciate you watching and commenting. Wish I had a .45-70!

[@hamm6035]

@@ArizonaGhostriders : to be totally honest I acquired a Peabody Martini in .43 Spanish that by written accounts is better than the 45/70. We'll see when the snows gone. I've gotten brass and bullets and have the first 20 ready to go. So side by side test is coming. Hahaha It would be interesting to hear about some of the different rifles and odd calibers in the west.

ive deff mastered cap and ball revolvers... can easily hit targets 50+ yards out with mine.. but for some reason rifles.. i cant seem to hit targets beyond 50 yards.. even with my 1874 sharps quigley. guess i just suck with rifles

[@Hardrada88]

Awesome video! This reminds me of Jack Hinson, a man of means during the civil war who wanted to stay out of it..until union troops mistook his sons (who were hunting) for bushwhackers and killed them. They cut the heads off and planted them on his front gate..he went and got revenge by sniping union officers and NCOs who made supply runs up and down the river. You can still go to his cave today and look down over that river - how the heck he made those shots, beats me! But the union were pretty scared of this guy and assumes there was a whole guerrilla force in those hills. Rather than a single man. This is some rifle! Exciting times

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

Great history. Thanks!

[@TheKody1988]

I met that guy you showed shooting at Quigley made him a bunch of 45-110 brass and came all the way over from Germany. I Loves these rifles got me a couple of Shilohs in a 44-77 and 45-100 and a original borchard in 45-110.

Great video as always, Santee. The Sharps was the long range rifle of its day while the equally iconic Winchester was the working rifle.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

The Remington and Spencer were also popular.

[@earli3693]

I own an 1832 Sharps and get a lot of entertainment by taking it to gun shows and letting people handle it. The security guards and police really appreciate it.

[@ArizonaGhostriders]

[@sandradempsey4648]

49 seconds into the video we are informed that the Sharps Rifle was designed in 1848! Could you mean 1852, rather than 1832? My hubby just aquired a 45-70 Sharps Long Range made in Montana. Beautiful rifle.

I have had the pleasure of shooting a Sharps carbine. It was the type that took a paper or cloth cartridge and a percussion cap. I like the Sharps. Josey Wales also carried one with a scope mounted on the top that was the same length of the barrel. You know of the Missouri Boat Ride. Great seeing Ron Cameron again.

The Sharps rifle was among the more modern firearms traded in Japan, post Commodore Perry. Contrary to what Tom Cruise would have you believe, the Samurai took to modern firearms in exactly the same way they had taken to them in the 16th century, ergo they loved them. If 'The Last Samurai' had had any respect for historical accuracy, it would have shown Samurai fighting the new Imperial army from trenches and in lines, with mostly muzzle-loading rifles. The lucky ones would have had Snider-Enfields... or Sharps rifles!

I know you keep your videos short and sweet, but I'd love to watch something a little longer, you've really got something good here, too many channels are condescending and not funny or informative, thank you.

Thank you Ernie. The big issue is that I work a full time job and edit in my free time...which there's not a lot of. So, this is what I can do.

Having tried something similar in a drop-block elephant gun (or so I was told; the round was d*** big, and d*** long), this is not something to forget to make tight, intimate, up close and personal contact with a shoulder before firing. Even then my shoulder ached for a couple of days afterwards. The idea of people running around, shooting up buffalo left and right with a Sharps, must have been the fond dream of old west orthopedists. If such existed... Oh yeah, and thanks for the humor!
