Original U.S. Civil War Sharps & Hankins Model 1862 Sliding Breech Naval Carbine with Leather Cover Remnants - Serial No 691 20th Century Traub (2 November 1918)Original Item: Only One Available. Straight out of an old barn and still mostly uncleaned! We have had several examples of the Sharps & Hankins Model 1862 carbine before, however we have never had one that had even a PIECE of the original leather cover. This example however still has some great remnants around the receiver area, and probably has about a third of the cover still present! Originally the cover would have gone all the way to the muzzle,
