Rolling block question
Found a used "Danish" rolling block on line....looks just like a Remington rolling block, as far as I can tell. Caliber is 11.7x42R.....

My question is: can this gun be converted to fire .45-70 cartridges with some gunsmithing? Will it need a new barrel, or can it be rechambered? Supposedly the gun is dated 1876.

Thanks in advance.............
