Back when I was paid to metal detect in YNP, we dug up 45-70 and 45-110 casings everywhere we went.

If you were finding cases, then those shooters were on the run, lol. Casings were always picked up if possible to reload.

We found them in various conditions, from smashed to good shape. Could tourist hunting parties in the park been sloppy with brass?

Not surprised. I have found casings near little big horn, specifically 44-40 I think.

I find it hilarious how we all seem to have similar tastes in guns.

I will have to model some guns with knives but for now, I will post this gun I purchased about 10 years ago. It is a 1951 ish 357 magnum smith before it was called the model 27. It was in almost unused condition when I got it. Original owner fired it like 12 times.

Birds of a feather 😎
Although, not as nice as that pure 100% S&W pre 27 you have there, this is my 5" 27-2 from '76 - I'd absolutely love to see some close ups of that pre 27 you have if you can... those Cokes are incredible.... 😎

Very nice. I have a nickel plated 4 inch M27 from 1977 ish. That one was another collector piece, not used. lol. It's used now though. If I have time, I will try to take some pics.
