Z8743 Confederate .52 Sharps Cartridge, Richmond Laboratory, 2nd Pattern

Description: Great example of a Confederate .52 Sharps cartridge. This example is known as the 2nd Pattern Richmond Laboratory cartridge. The bullets have a larger diameter than the 1st Pattern. This example does have soiling but is the best example I’ve had in about five years. A great Confederate cartridge that would nice next to your S.C. Robinson Richmond Sharps Carbine!
