I was impressed by the "1875" Sharps; they make a nice compromise between the "Little Sharps" '74s made in Italy and a full-sized '74. Heavy enough to handle some "buffalo" rounds without destroying your shoulder but much more compact than a '74. Since I like Ruger #1s, the investment cast reciever doesn't bother me a bit. But I'm still gettin' a Hiwall.
