Sharps USA military carbine 1859
The Sharps carbine, created from the design of Christian Sharps in 1848, was a lifting bolt carbine which, in addition to being able to use a standard primer, had a rather unusual priming mechanism. This contained a column of percussion caps and placed one on the fireplace every time the trigger was pulled and the hammer fell, making it easier to fire.
