This week we have a Colt .45,  this is actually an Italian made 
reproduction that I got as a shooter.  The rifle s an original trapdoor 
.45-55 Springfield carbine which I've owned for around 50 years and was 
the first firearm in my collection.  Both of these were standard issue 
for the US cavalry from 1873 until the early 1890's;
