Twenty years ago you could get the gun tested forensically to see if it had actually been at the Battle of the little Big Horn.. After the US Park Service stopped doing it in the late 80's as part of their archaeological research Glenwood Swanson would do it for a fee...
My Big 50 Springfield that belonged to MH recipient for valor at the BH, Otto Voit sadly did not show up in the forensic data base. The thinking by the Park Service guyz and Glenwood was that it could possibly be Capt French's Big 50 which was noted as being in the battle.
