Cimarron ~ Pride of the Plains ~ .45-70 Gov

This Cimarron Pride of the Plains Sharps rifle chambered in .45-70 Government is a handsome single-shot rifle in very good condition. It features a long octagonal barrel, attractive walnut furniture, and a polished receiver that complements its classic frontier-era styling. The rifle has been upgraded with a Malcolm 6X scope for enhanced long-range shooting capability, and it includes a leather buttstock cover/cheek rest. The Pride of the Plains is Cimarron's reproduction of the famed Sharps buffalo rifles that gained prominence on the American frontier during the late 19th century. Known for their strength, accuracy, and powerful chamberings such as .45-70 Government, Sharps rifles became favorites among buffalo hunters, target shooters, and western sportsmen.
