A modern-production Winchester Model 1873 rifle in deluxe grade, serial 00006YW73U, chambered in .45 Colt with a 24-inch octagon barrel. The receiver is color case hardened and the barrel is blued. Sights are a brass bead up front and an adjustable semi-buckhorn at the rear. The wood forend and stock finish with a crescent buttplate. The bore is excellent, the overall condition is excellent, and the original box is included. Sold used.

This is a lever rifle for the shooter who wants the look of the original 1873 with the convenience of current manufacture. Pairing it with a .45 Colt revolver gives a cowboy action competitor one cartridge for both guns, and the long octagon barrel and buckhorn sight suit range work. The .45 Colt is not among the lever calibers commonly listed for deer, so check your state's rules before taking it hunting.
