45/70 auto

[Archeryrob]

I just watched this video on a FB Real from Kentucky Ballistics. I have always loved 45/70 and just not acquired one yet. This is defiantly a F your cover gun!

Sent it to my kids, Christmas ideas for next year.

Different cartridge Been done before. I'm out (again).

An autoloader in .45-70 GOVERNMENT would have my full attention.

Can an AR operate rimmed cartridge's? Not sure I ever saw one.

No. 45-70 Auto has no rim. It is not the same as 45-70 Govt.

I'll be honest: I don't see the point. 45 Raptor already did this. 500 Auto Max is even bigger.

I agree.

Semi-auto in a hunting round has a limited number of states where it can be used.

Big Horn Armory makes a 500 Auto Max AR. My bud in WVA acquired one and it is bad ass.

Ah , no . It has our attention because we're next door , but that's only a Pennsylvania thing .

Isn't the .450 Marlin essentially a shorter rimless .45-70 ?
