They're a classic! Those Hopkins and Allen rifles were made about two hours from where I live and when I was a kid in high school, they could be found in most of the area gun shops for reasonable $$. I still know some fellas who bought one back in the day and still have them. If I remember right, the .45 caliber rifles were quite common back then. H&A made a pistol version as well.
