The Model 1873 is one of the most iconic of American rifles. Given the moniker “The Gun that Won the West”, the 1873 was there during the Indian Wars and Range Wars of the late 19th century. Cowboys, Natives, settlers, miners, law enforcement, express companies and hunters all found these rifles and carbines useful tools. These rifles made excellent companions to revolvers at the time as they were chambered for the same ammunition, meaning that the user only had to keep one type to feed both guns. One could easily defend the homestead and provide for his family with this versatile weapon. The 1873 really was the quintessential Western rifle, handily outpacing all the muzzle-loading and Civil War surplus guns that also made their way to the frontier. This rifle features a 24-inch octagonal barrel with a full-length magazine. The butt has the crescent rifle plate. The front sight is an adjustable blade. It is chambered for .32 WCF, a perfectly capable and revolver compatible cartridge. The metal surfaces have a brown patina. The hammer still shows case colors.
