Silver Sam, SASS #34718L Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 It is spoken for.... Thanks!!! Yep, It is an Original Winchester model 1873 20" round barrel short rifle in 38wcf.... But it was rebuilt a few years ago, new links were made, the barrel was relined, every internal piece was gone over, replaced or remade in new steel It shoots Awesome!!!! Slick, Smooth and very Accurate... The action throw is about equal a first gen. Short Stroke... Externally it's a really Nice 123 year old Winchester '73 short rifle, internally its almost entirely new and it shoots smokeless powder just fine! You cannot tell anything has been done to it unless you remove the sideplates and then you'll only know if you're really familiar with Winchesters. All of the work was professionally done at the highest level by one of the best smiths in Texas. A 100% original '73 short rifle in this condition it would be about a three thousand dollar gun. I dont shoot it any more & my grandkids aren't interested.... I'll sell it for $1600 plus shipping direct to You... It IS an Antique.

Wolfgang, SASS #53480 Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 About like mine . . on which I rebuilt the internals myself. But I already have a round barraled short rifle. If it had a 26 inch octagon barrel . . . . I'd be buying it . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buck D. Law, SASS #62183 Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Something is funky with the slide show. When I tried to view it, I saw one yellow frog...and then my virus detection blocked the site. I was able to see the other photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
