	I have come across a reference that states this gentleman from Reply#2, is William Cody in 1871. Regards, Powderman

	Wondering if the gentleman on the right might be holding a single shot. My eyes are not good enough to tell. To me it appears to be either a Sharps Model 1878 or a Winchester Model 1885. What do the experts say? Regards, Powderman

	Unfortunately. the light is reflected off the young man's Merwin & Hulbert's plating just enough to make the rifle's action difficult to identify. It could well be either an 1885 or an 1878; but I favor a Winchester over a Sharps. Bill Lawrence

	A little Photo Shop tweak helps bring out detail in shadows.
