No problem! That particular derringer is special-made to hold a 45-70. A more typical derringer would look more like this or this.
Really, the only use case I can think of, other than “I like shooting powerful rounds”, for the 45-70 is big-game hunting or self-defense against bears, lmao.

Oh, so it’s custom-made as a joke, not an off-the-shelf model that you just put the wrong bullets in. That makes more sense.
You know how some people’s like having a ridiculously huge truck just to show off to other people that have a ridiculously huge truck? Some gun enthusiasts are like that. It’s not uncommon to see novelty guns like this made, sometimes custom or sometimes by a factory. Stuff like a revolver that also shoots shotgun shells or a pistol with two barrels to shoot two shots at once or a bolt-action pistol to shoot the (basically) largest rifle rounds.
I think this happens in any hobby. I’m sure there are bird watchers with $5000 custom hand-ground binocular lenses or something.
Hey, I’m down for gun enthusiasts getting weird guns. It’s more environmentally friendly than a huge truck, that’s for sure.
Good point.
The ULR 50 is only a pistol by the broadest possible definition of the term.
Oh, for sure. I’m surprised it’s made at all.
