long barreled single shot rifle

I know the H&R 1871 Buffalo Classic in 45/70 sports a 32 inch barrel but I read somewhere of a 34 inch barrel single shot but can't seem to locate it again. Any help provided would be appreciated.
My 1885 Highwall has a 28 inch barrel. I can only imagine a rifle with 6 more inches! Shocked

Most of the original Creedmoor rifles had 34” barrels….

The Quigley Sharps has a 34" barrel.  Both Shiloh and C Sharps have sold many 34" rifles.  My 1877 is a 32"

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

I have probably six singleshot rifles with 34" barrels. A Ballard #7 Long-Range, Ballard Offhand, Remington Rolling Block Creedmoor, Hepburn Match B, another Hepburn Sporting Rifle, and some other rolling Block and Ballard rifles with 34" barrels.
34" barrels aren't common, but they were standard on certain models, and special order on many more. I've always been attracted to long barrels on singleshot rifles.

Here's mine.  Original Winchester 1885 38-55 with a #5 barrel, 36" long.

My son will be 27 and a daddy in the next couple of months!
