Probably the oldest one in my collection and I have the ammo to use with it, haven't shot it yet but it's in about 95%+ shape so no doubt on function. Barrel looks nice, I wanted to get in on one that wasn't black powder. Posting to discuss, some history here.
Springfield Cadet Rifle, model 1884, made in 1890, cal 45/70 Govt. I have some original ammo pouches and the bayonet also. Hammer action is from an 1873 model.
