I know the standard mag tubes fit both .45 and are also used for the .45s. Do you know if this mag tube will work on a .45?

No, it's the stainless-steel mag tube with a spring, and screw cap for the end, and the stainless-steel follower. I can send pics if you are interested.
-
The mag tube is for a 38/357 1873. I don't believe it's interchangeable. I don't have any 45's to check it with. Sorry.
Recently found out the mag tube works for all calibers

This fits a 20" 1873 rifle. It includes end plug, follower and spring. It has a Matt finish. $150 shipped.

Was the short stroke kit ever installed in a rifle, and if so, did it have an aluminum or brass carrier?
-
Timing is perfect, springs are new. After discussing the problem with Joe, It took 5 attempts at removing a little from the carrier throat at the ridges where the wide portion tightens down to the narrow section on the top of the carrier. Runs great. Called Joe and discussed the results. All is good.
Thanks to all that chimed in. Regards... RT

Problem resolved. Joe at PGW suggested opening the throat on the carrier where the top goes from wide to narrow.

So do I notch the arm on the top, where there is already a slight notch, a little bit more, or add to the bottom of the ball section on the tip of the arm

I recently purchased a lightly used Uberti 357 1873 rifle with a pioneer short stroke. The shooter wasn't very fast so there was no problem, but I cycle a rifle very fast for an old guy. (10 rounds in 4.2 seconds). My problem is that the bolt shoulder catches on the front taper of the carrier and stops the bolt from full travel backwards, when running it fast. It has Wisper springs for carrier and lever. How can I fix this speed problem? Do I notch the lifter, so it rides lower on the down movement or do I file the shoulder on the carrier? My other 73, 357 rifle has everything the same except there is a deeper notch on the lifter arm.

As I understand it, JM Marlin's are scribed with the last 3 of the serial number on the bottom of the bolt. Also, there are gunsmiths that scribe their initials or sign the bolt to identify their work. That's all I know.....I asked the same question some time ago.......Hope this helps...............RT

JM Marlin. This rifle is stock except it has had the internals smoothed out and a lightened lever spring added. No dings, or dents. Light use.

Thanks to all. I think I have it now. Widder, easier to get the correct OAL than for me to TIG weld...Thanks for info. Looks like 1.50 is going to work. I'll get some built next week and try them..
I'll be back if they jam......THANKS AGAIN RT
-
Thanks Widder.........Now I know why my 1.43's jam. TOO SHORT
-
I have a stock 1894 Cowboy Limited in 357/38. I use a 130 grain bullet TCFT. In your experience what is the best OAL to minimize jamming when levering fast in our game.........
I once owned a Carty Marlin but it was limited to 38's with a OAL of 1.42.........What is the best for a stock gun????
Thanks RT

On the underside of the bolt there are numbers scratched in with a letter T at the end. Any idea who the smith was and what he might have done to it. Last three of serial number is 297
Bolt picture is the last of the 8 pics
Thanks RT
