Chiappa 1874 Sharps Rifle | .45-70 | 32″ Octagon | 920.001

The Chiappa 1874 Sharps sporting rifle reproduces the classic falling-block design chambered in .45-70 Government with a 32″ octagon barrel and hand-oiled walnut furniture. It pairs historical lines and modern manufacturing to deliver a single-shot rifle suited to deliberate, accurate shooting. For an optic under $1,000 that complements the long sight radius and intended use, a Leupold VX-Freedom 3-9×40 provides a clear, durable option without exceeding the rifle’s lines.

Applications: target and long-range single-shot shooting, and large-game hunting where strong single-shot performance and traditional balance are desired.
