Re: 1886 45-70
I have an 86 EL.
IIRC I cut the legs off the rebound spring guide, cut a half cock notch in the hammer and removed the tang safety.
Never a misfire before or after the mod.
Many many handloads have gone through that rifle. It’s one of the few cold dead hands guns I have.

That’s a tough one. Even if he was facing the street his time deficit was huge. Drawing from the drop could have succeeded if the lead perp was just using the gun as an intimidation tool, a poor shot or the gun was a High Point.

The .410 in most guns comes with a fixed full choke. Nath opened his up a few thou. No one that I could find (except Briley $$$) threads .410 bore guns. I’d really like a threaded choke.

I have an Iver Johnson Champion but it’s a full choke and I don’t want to open it up.
I like the idea of the Win 42
I seem to remember Old Ironsights having challenges with his 9410
Not interested in break action or semiautomatic.
Whatcha all think?
