Default Colt 1861 Navy

One of my buddies, at the local range, let me shoot his Colt 1861 Navy. (I hope I stated the correct year.) I shot six rounds off one handed. It sure was fun..

Another guy let me shoot his two trigger rifle. He also taught me how to load it. I was a little nervous about the recoil, but it didn't hurt. What a bang it made..

It was very exciting for me, as I've never shot anything old like those two weapons were.
