Suggestions for non-firing Sharps or Winchester rifle for decoration
I'm looking for a wall hanging non-firing Sharps or '73 Winchester type rifle to hang in a game room. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I've seen them for sale on eBay - multiple types of rifles and pistols. I see an 1866 Winchester Lever-Action Carbine Rifle by Denix Replica on there...

For what it's worth, 1885s in that category do pop up on that big online gun auction site from time to time as well.

Was just at a huge auction, there were two octagonal barrel Winchester 73‘s. I think they went for well over $1800 apiece.

There was a World War II Lee Enfield Mk.2 still in the OG 1941? paper wrapper at the auction.

I was going to ruin it - unwrap it, and hang it over my fireplace. But I got nervous around $1100. Damnit!
