History Story

Through reports and short stories I knew of this gun, but this is one of the best put together gun story presentations I've seen on it. Enjoy....

There is one in the Museum in the back of Huntington's in Oroville. At the 1:00 minute mark in this video---

IIRC, rifle case on the left, third column of rifles, #6 from the top. At least it was when I worked there.

This raises an interesting question. If someone started manufacturing these rifles again what would CADOJ say about them? Would the action of the lever for loading be classified as a form of bolt action. How quiet would this gun be? raises a lot of interesting questions for a history buff and a potential weapon that could bypass a lot of California laws. Thank you for the lesson.
