I bought three Shiloh Sharps rifles in the early 90s (see pics below) and kept one that I still have. I don’t buy long guns anymore but looking at this Shiloh web page I did pick one I would choose if I did. It would be a Hartford Model, .50-70, military butt stock, and straight heavy 28” 1/2 octagon barrel. EXCLUDING the more expensive Creedmore and Quigley models listed, what would you choose here that costs UNDER $3000?
