There were 6 Springfield 50/70's at the Defensive fight....one belonged to Captain French....who shot at an Indian 6 times and missed, where upon he gave up on the rifle and a SGT Ryan got ahold of it...
However there were no 50/70 cartridges found in the CO H area where Voit fought....so?????It is doubtfull he carried this rifle at the LBH...If it could be forensically proven to have been at the Battle...it would be the only gun known to have been owned by a MH winner....and be DIRECTLY tied to a known participant...there are several other Carbines that are indirectly tied to participants with initials carved into the stocks...
