SHARPS RIFLE BULLET MOLD - .40 CALIBER – SHARPS
RIFLE COMPANY MANUFACTURE – FRANK SELLER’S COLLECTION:
The exact mold shown in SHARPS FIREARMS by Frank
Sellers, on page 348 (lower photograph, center mold) and
purchased directly from Seller’s research collection,
this .40 caliber Sharps Rifle Company Bullet Mold is in
excellent condition with all the legible stampings.
Both handles bear matching serial numbers (105), and the
left handle is stamped with the caliber, the bullet
weight, “330”, and “SHARPS RIFLE CO., BRIDGEPORT,
CONN.”. The right handle is stamped on the reverse “OLD
RELIABLE” in the octagon box outline.
Overall in excellent condition, there is no damage or
signs of excessive use or wear to the smooth mould
cavities or the sprue trimming blades, and the faces of
the jaws meet without any gaps. The handles are not
deformed and the metal surface of the handles shows only
minor darkening due to age and very minor pitting. This
is a very nice accessory to display with your Sharps
Rifle.
