Sometimes you go for one and another one follows you home.

It’s a 24In barrel in 45-70.  The Enfield has a couple of Confederate Anchor markings on it, but that’s just my preliminary guess. The gentleman I purchased them from had the Winchester hanging above his fireplace for almost 40 years.  I was working out the details on a Right of Way Agreement with the gentleman a few months ago and noticed the 86.  I finally decided to call him about the Winchester and to my surprise he said yes only if I buy both.
