    Out of curiosity, since this was made during the black powder era, is it safe to use with modern .44-40 loads, i.e. for CAS? I'm perfectly willing to take it to a professional 'smith to have it checked out for any structural issues should I buy it, but in general, are the modern CAS loads safe to use in an old gun designed for black powder loads?

    LHS, black powder loads should only be used through a black powder frame.
