Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a handsome, and well preserved body; but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming...."WOW!... What a ride!"

Uh, hello, Uberti? ;D

Can you imagine a 45 shot Henry? The Ordinance folks would be pulling their hair out trying to supply cartridges.  The "Dang Yankee rifle you could shoot all week" would be a month!

On the other hand, it would make a stunning gunsmith project for a Steam Punk impression!
