The .45-70 chambering handles standard SAAMI-spec loads effectively, delivering classic power in a lightweight, maneuverable package ideal for woods carry. Condition: Excellent overall - bright blued finish with minimal handling marks, sharp markings, crisp action, clean bore (strong rifling, no pitting visible in photos), and vibrant laminated wood with attractive grain patterns and no cracks or major damage. Functions smoothly as a single-shot should; ready to shoot or display. A discontinued model from the late 1990s H&R 1871 era, these Limited Edition variants with the medallion and upgraded wood are harder to find and add nice collectible appeal beyond standard Handi-Rifles.
