The Model 1873 is loved by Cowboy Action Shooters because it fires the same ammo as their revolvers. It features a beautiful walnut stock with a satin oil finish that's velvet smooth to the touch. It has a quality, level of polish and finishes that are superior. The steel loading gate provides for smoother loading. The rear tang is drilled and tapped for an optional tang-mounted rear sight for a more precise sight picture. This Short Rifle model features a straight stock, round barrel and gold bead front sight with semi-buckhorn rear.
