Have you ever wanted to own a gun, but worried about how safe it would be to keep around the house? Well this Colt Lightning .45/70, might just be the gun for you. It was dug up in the Gold Country town of Jamestown, an area known for stage hold ups and claim jumping. Could this rusty old relic be a one time accomplice to one of those dastardly crimes?
