I was at my buddys the other day and he had a mini sharps. I forget the manufacture (or importer) and will check on it but this was a fine little rifle. It was chambered in 45 colt and comes in a good selection of chamberings from a .357 to a 3030. this was a fine little gun fit and finish was great. Good wood and beautiful case colars. It was cute as a button!! The dealer sent it to him so his 11 year old daughter could shoot something with it to get some pictures for a brocure he wanted to make. Well we went out yesterday and she knocked down a 900 lb cow buffalo with it. Loade was a 255 kieth that went 1100 out of a handgun. The bullet blew right through the buffalo. When he gets some pictures ill post them but it sure was cute seeing that little blond pigtailed girl sitting next to a buffalo with a little sharps rifle!!

Nice looking little rifles. I wish I could afford a couple.

I've handled one of the Charles Daly Mini Sharp's rifles in 38-55 caliber. Since it was the same cost as a Hi-Wall, I went the Browning/Winchester Route.

I believe these are pedersoli manufacture with Charles Daly as the importer.

Sweet rig. Shame the photos on the site are not so good.

I reckon one of these rifles in one of the old .28cal would be great.

The 45 colt is a great cast boolit shooter and taking a buffalo with one sounds like lots of fun.
