Found a LE 45-70
« on: January 27, 2007, 06:45:00 PM »
I picked up a Limited Edition 45-70 from 1997. It has a Walnut stock and the Whitetail Unlimited Medallion. Its in very nice condition. I don't know how many of these were made. Can't have to many 47-70's. ;D

That does sound like a nice one James B, and you are right about the 45/70, if one is nice just think how much better 2 would be!!! I have one and it's a favorite, it was also my first Handi. Someday I may still get my Buff Classic....<><.... ;D

I don't think this one has been used much. I may add a BC barrel to this one. ;)
