Lawman's Bullitt Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Can anyone give me information for a longer stock for my model 1873 caliber 357 mag rifle by Taylor's & Company Winchester VA- A. Uberti Italy ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Okie Sawbones, SASS #77381 Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Ya danged knuckle dragger... I don't know of anyone making a longer stock, but one option is to go over to Kirkpatrick Leather and buy one of their lace up butt covers for the 73. You can put layers of felt inside the butt cover to give you additional length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang I hate wen I gotta agree with Qkie---- BUT hes on track- If ya need more'n a half inch (kant imagnin that) cut sum wood to match the stock end to screw it on or it'll move round - then add the cover Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace_of_Hearts Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Purchase a factory inletted stock and then add a wood spacer behind it to the desired length of pull. Any decent stock worker should be able to do the job for you. The extra length can be easily covered with a leather cover and no one will be the wiser. Buy the shotgun style butt stock. 1873 stock The company will sell you some scrap wood to make a 2 - 4 inch spacer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
