Take-down survival rifles

The CoPilot 45-70 sells for only $1980.00

You could have a plain black zipper case
made for your take-down rifle.
One screw holds the shoulder stock on
Marlin 336 30-30 and 1895S 45-70.
With shoulder stock removed:
336 30-30 20" barrel OAL is 28"
1895S 45-70 22" barrel OAL is 30"
cut 45-70 barrel to 16-1/2" .......
OAL is 24-1/2"

I wondered about MV from 16" barrel
see Lyman 47 reloading manual
Thompson-Contender 45-70 16" barrel
cast bullet #457193 405 grains
RX7 33.0gr MV 1386 fps 41.0 gr MV 1578 fps.
IMR-3031 34.0gr 1061 fps 38.5 gr 1304 fps

I suppose it takes about the same
amount of time to assemble the Co-Pilot
as to install the screw that secures
the stock on 1895S and 336.

My favourite take-down rifle is still
the Garand 30-06. Remove trigger housing
group. It separates into two major parts:
barrelled action 32" stock 30"
You may remove one round from the enbloc
clip of eight. Load clip of seven rounds.
Depress rounds and allow bolt to close on
an empty chamber. Disassemble rifle and
store it in black zipper case. Reassemble
rifle, cycle the bolt to chamber a round
and you are ready to shoot.
