Interesting –

Ends up being a very heavy rifle for a .45 Colt.  I suppose they used the .45-75 bore.

Who let Bubba have a go at this gun?  It’s essentially a parts gun now.

I call myself a collector as it sounds better than hoarder

Bet the accuracy sux on this one, even at .454 it would be too small
