The 73s were less popular then Marlins until the development of being able to reliably short stroke the 73s through either cut and weld or redesigned toggle links.
I know .
I shot a 92 for many years over the Marlin.
I still consider the 92 as one of the best lever action rifles ever made .

My cousin had a 9 mm carbine rifle.
He took a hacksaw and cut the stock in half because he thought it would look cool as a pistol.
He wrote a email to High Point and told them what he did, They mailed him a new stock.
No charge !

Ballastal was for cleaning guns .

They call it a 1873 Colt Clone.
It should be called a 2010 Ruger Vaquero Clone
But they look just fine to me .
I have had very good Taurus Revolvers over the years .
Much better then the plastic fantastic they have been putting out !

If you take your Marlin of any vintage .
And you put it in a rifle holder of your favorite type .
Take a Brass punch and knock out the rear sight from Left to Right .
Too not damage the dovetail or the sight itself.
Remove the Marlin from the holder and turn it over and cycle the action 14 times upside down .
Then 14 times on its left side .
14 more times on its right side .
This is all done with No Ammo in the firearm.
This is the smoothest a Marlin will ever feel .
Then you put it back in the safe for that rainy day of shooting .
Pull out your Winchester 73 .
And go shooting with the best functioning rifle of all time

At least the French helped is in the war for independence, where we fought against the British.
Nothing wrong with the French .
They had a lot of unfired rifles only dropped once sold on the American market

Smith&Wesson No. 3 revolvers are Beautiful and a lot of fun to play with .
If I'm reading this info correctly.
There is No parts available for these guns when they go down ?
Why is that ?
I mean they still make and sell them .
Why can you not get parts for them ?

Mine worked really good out of the box.
They made them to shoot 2.3/4 shells and Not 2.5 like a lot of them did .
Only problem with a drop two conversion is you can't load the tube when you want more rounds then two in the shotgun.
I would rather be able to load the full tube when I want too.
And learn to single load it for Cowboy Action Shooting.

So my New Model Army Remington By Pietta AKA 58's
Are older guns and I had cylinder fitment issus from the start .
The frames was two small and the timing was off once I fitted the cylinders to the frame.
I had to order special Hand and fit them to correct the timing issues.
I don't think it's all that uncommon on the older guns to have to do some fitment work to them .
Most new guns it's a drop in and play game .
Hand issue !

Just Sayin you can probably buy a Brass Frame Pietta 44 and barrel length you want for about as cheap as your going to pay for all the parts you need .
Good luck .

Yep. After the bullet is installed in the case the APP will settle and you end up with no compression or airgap.

I have never had this happen with any of my APP loads that I'm aware of ?
Nothing has ever seemed out of order that I could tell .

Sounds like a typical Marlin action to me

Good buy !

I'm not sure if your trying to ask a question or just make a statement.
I am also a 44 Man .
I load and shoot 44 Magnum , 44 Special & 44 Russian.
If you shoot and load 44 Russian.
You can replicate the 44 Henry flat exactly the same as it was originally shot , Just in center fire .

Hickok is on Rumble too with a lot of the episodes Youtube removed.
A lot of us are on both YouTube and Rumble because YouTube really sensors you their platform these days.
I am ( BigRooster616 ) on YouTube and Rumble.
Rumble is a much gun friendly platform.

If you can take it apart and clean it .
You can put a spring kit in it yourself.
More or less just like a Colt setup .
Hand is a little different but not rocket science .
Just order a spring kit and do one at a time and enjoy the process.

ISO::: Colt 1851 .36 Navy 2nd Generation
in SASS Wire Classifieds
Posted
I have several 2nd Gen Colts .
But honestly if your looking gor shooters .
The Uberti or Pietta is a much better gun with better rifling twist and build quality.
The 2nd Gens just look nicer on the out side and Say Colt on them .
But I have Several I could be talked out of for a price .
