I picked up a Sharps 1853 percussion copy by the Nepalese last weekend. I have been doing my research from the little bit available, and think this one is one of the later production Nepalese guns...

It has a repaired crack on the rear of the handguard. I have now located another RIC dated with the same month on the stock disc 12'04 that is also curiously missing the bayonet lug. This may go...

71/84 Mauser, made in 1888 (last year of production). It is unissued and unfired (its amazing to see a 121 year old rifle that is brand new !)

Gonna try a picture from my hard drive
