I'll know more when I talk to Roy at rhe SCA show in May. Bobw.

In the past people ask about a 2nd run of vol.#2 that came out first about 74's as they are sold out. ROY TOLD ME THAT IT WILL BE LOOKED AT after volume 4 is done and shipped. Volume #2's have sold for 4 figure amounts in the secondary market. If anyone is interest I noticed back on 3/17/24 in the 24 hr campfire classifieds someone was selling # 1,#2,& # 3 as a set with jackets and shipping. Bobw

Set is also for sale on the ASSRA forum. Three volumes for $480. Not mine, not selling. Just out there for those that are looking for the set.

Probably the same guy as same price.

They are taking pre publication orders on #4 now.

Yes, received my postcard in the mail a few days ago.

For those who are interested, includes free shipping:
$90.00 to "Northwood Heritage Press"
Send to:

Just got my copies of vol1 and 3. Low and behold one of my collection is in Vol 3! Totally mis identified as a "Unknown gunsmith" conversion when it is actually a 1868 factory converted NM1859 Rifle with 3 groove liner serial number inside the Berdan's rifles. But not important. THese are very nice books and glad I fnally got them. They are a bt thin on cartouch identification but you can't have everythng.

Got mine ordered

Already have Vols 1-3 and got my notification card for Vol 4 in the mail yesterday. Going to send a check off tomorrow to finish up the set!

Ordered volume 4 and will complete the set. Hope to see a slip cover for them now that book sizes are known.

Does anyone know if Roy has any of the volume 1and3 left?? Thanks

I'd be surprised if he doesn't last I knew only 2 was sold out. Bobw

I just bought 1 and 3 from Buffalo with their 15% sale at $85 each. Great picture books but lacks some of the seril number and description detail I was hoping for. THinking on vol 4 but need to see index since I have little interest in 1878s.

For Volume 4, I worked on the Chapter on ‘Sharps Long Range Rifles in Great Britain & Ireland’ with (the late) De Witt Bailey.

The latest information circulated on the 492 page volume, including a list of chapters can be found in a News page on my web site - Sharps Firearms, Volume 4
