About 30 years ago I was out shooting with some friends near Georgetown, TX and one of my friends buddies had an original trapdoor Springfield Carbine. He said he bought it for $75 at an antique store and it had been made into a lamp. He was into antiques but turned it back into a carbine and he some how got an original bullet mold and the reloading tool similar to a pair of pliers like the Lyman tool. He cast his own lead bullets and reloaded the cases with black powder and brought home a buck every year. I thought that was pretty cool and I really enjoyed shooting the gun and could hit small rocks at 120 yards pretty easily.
H&R 45-70 cavalry carbine ?
