  • I remember John Jobson from Sports Afield showing Spencwer carbines as being used at the little big horn. A lever broke them down for cleaning,& the natives hitting this lever,thought they were broken,& discarded them. It was tested by Abraham Licoln himself toward the end of the war. They claimed to have Custer's rifle,selling for $3,000 back in the 60's.???

  • I'd reckon that rifles used with reno would not be as valuable as a rifle traced to keogh and then those actually used on custer hill would be the the most valuable of all.

  • Well one thing to proof this is a real Custer Carbine is to fire a blank and compare the pin print in the cap with those cases recovered in Little Big Horn.

    There are records of them found in the 80's after the prairie burn.
