Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474

So, it's a short rifle then. I stand educated. Thank-you

Could well be. I never paid a lot of attention to it. I just noticed it felt better and I liked it. My '73 doesn't have a saddle ring. Here are pictures of both of mine. Could well be.

It's the barrel length. The 1866 Yellow Boy's barrel is 24 1/2", while the 1873's barrel is 20" I find the '73 less muzzle heavy.

It's the typical Uberti red stain and laquer. I've been tempted to strip it, stain the wood and just oil it.

Us Holy Catholics, (Anglicans/Church of England) never had a problem with a drink. Or two. Or Three. OH Heck! Just leave that bottle of Scotch right there!

I went from the Uberti '66 rifle to a SASS short stroked '73 carbine. Lighter, not as muzzle heavy and the short stroking has spoiled me.

'73 carbine for me after I switched from a '66 rifle What a difference!!

With apologise to Sue and Allie:

In Canadian winters, public transit users always like to work together.

Should have asked then if she wanted to make a baby!

Congratulations!!

This deserves a bump to the top.
