The U.S. Army ordered some 700 of the Lee 1882 and the Navy about 1,500 of the 1885, both chambered for the government .45-70. The rifle was popular, however, and the company sold thousands in other calibers to civilians and to several foreign governments. The magazine for this model is distinct with two guide grooves for the cartridge lifter. This has about 50 percent thin blue on one side and about 80 percent on the other. [sr]
