If someone would come up with a "round barreled 44" as Dixon described his rifle, that could show provenance to that fight, it would be worth a fortune.

Long range rules, the rest drool.
Don, Or the scope sighted Sharps 45.2.1 First sergeant Ryan used at the battle of the little big horn? he auctioned it off to his company as he left service the buyer had sold it on and did not know where it went or serial number as he tried a few years later to get it back.
Tom both rifles probably ended being turned into 219 zippers or such and the barrels used for tomato stakes..
Long range rules, the rest drool.
One thing did shine thru this year tho, they did finally recover Jim Bakers real rifle, and not the fakes so many tried to pass off as the real thing.
Long range rules, the rest drool.
