This video explores the Winchester 1886 Line Thrower, a unique adaptation of the classic lever-action rifle. Originally a .45-70 rifle, these were modified by William Read & Sons with smooth bored barrels cut to 14.5 inches and chambered for blank cartridges to launch ropes for maritime safety. These specialized firearms were utilized by the US Coast Guard and Navy and saw service well into the post-World War Two era. The description highlights their importance in maritime rescue and points to further resources for those interested in line-throwing devices.
