FOGERTY REPEATING CARBINE. Cal. .50 CF. 20″ rnd bbl, Spencer type sight. Marked “FOGERTY RIFLE Co / BOSTON U.S.A. / PATENTED FEB.21 – 1865.” on top of the action. This late carbine has the cartridge cut off inside the triggerguard and the modified Sharps patchbox loading gate. These were submitted to the 1865 Ordnance Trials and recommended for production but the idea was never carried out. CONDITION: Excellent with most of the blue on the bbl and bbl band, 70% on the loading gate mixed with light surface rust and pitting. The casehardening is brilliant on the right side of the action and on the hammer, slightly faded on the left side and nearly gone from the buttplate. The action is fine.
