Default Henry Ford's Lever Action Shotgun

A bit OT, but interesting.

The Cody Firearms Museum in Wyoming has a huge collection of Winchester firearms, and they regularly post videos on YouTube featuring various items in their collection. This video features the S/N 1 lever action shotgun that belonged to Henry Ford. Here's the link to the video if you're interested:

And yes, that cute little blonde is the curator of the museum and is quite knowledgeable of firearms.
