So where are all your 45-70's? In the "working" rack? Or maybe the "Owww! My shoulder!!" rack? :?

The rifle on the top is a"Trapdoor" and is the original 45/70 rifle. First gun ever productio rifle chambered in 45/70 Government. Of course it is only one of six in the house. Here'sanother 45/70. Contender Super 14 with muzzle break mounted on the frame. The long barrel is a 16" 223 and the shorty is a 22 Hornet.

Another 45/70, an H&R 1871 "Buffalo Classic" with a 32" barrel.
