Explanation:

Sharps rifles are a series of large-bore single-shot rifles, beginning with a design by Christian Sharps in 1848, and ceasing production in 1881. They were renowned for long-range accuracy. By 1874 the rifle was available in a variety of calibers, and it was one of the few designs to successfully transition to metallic cartridge use.

The Sharps rifles became icons of the American Old West due to their appearances in many Western-genre movies and books. Perhaps as a result, a number of different rifle companies currently offer reproductions of the Sharps rifle.

Incomplete question. The attached image completes the question.

Explanation:

From the image, we observe it is actually a cartoon from the year 1833 depicting Andrew Jackson who served as the seventh president of the United States. Because he was seen as a president wanting to be a dictator, the cartoon portrays him in a negative light.

For example, the author (or cartoonist) puts on Jackson's hand a scroll titled "VETO", representing his decision to veto Congress's bill to recharter the banks in 1832.

Also to showcase what the author sees as Jackson's disregard for the "Constitution of the United States of America" and the Internal Improvements U.S. Bank" they were positioned under his foot.

Finally, we can also see a book thrown on the ground with the titled "Judiciary of the U.States" indicating his lack of interest to consult or respect the judiciary of the United States.
