All. I have a potential to get a imported Garrett Arms 45/70 carbine rifle that's a Sharps clone. I cant find alot online. I know Garrett went under in the mid 80s but all I can find is they are decent clones and most parts interchange with a military Spencer rifle. I did read some barrels are similar to a Marlin and need a fat boolit. That's not an issue. My main concern is are they quality built? This one has Garrett's cartouche right above the saddle ring so he did inspect it supposedly
Palmetto sold more after he severed ties that weren't as good and they didnt have his cartouche on them. It looks really lightly used and in very good shape. I have the potential to get it for $450 so need to know if its worth it value wise and if they had in known problems I should look for? Thanks for the help.
By the way I am supposed to get it Saturday to look over and purchase if all is well with it.
