Re: 45 long colt lever gun
The .45 Colt was introduced in the Winchester Mdl 94AE Trapper in 1985.willysgto wrote:Does anyone know when the first 45 long colt lever gun was made and by who. I can't find out.
I think it was the first to come out in .45 Colt, and the Marlin 1894 soon after. At least that's all I've ever read.

45 COLT LEVER GUN
I believe these guys are on target.Contrary to popular belief ther were no 45 colt levers until modern times.For whatever reason only revolvers were made in 45 Colt until fairly recently.
Joe is right on the money! Paco talks about it a bit in this good read about the .45 Colt http://www.leverguns.com/articles/paco/ ... vergun.htm
