Too Tall Bob Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 I know they are spoken for but are they for small caliber (38/357 etc) or large caliber (38-40, 45 colt etc) because there is a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrel Cody Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 Why does everyone believe they have two different sizes? I'll take one either way, but I dont see that there is a difference; what am I missing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 4th gen lever is different than a stock lever both dimensionally, and metallurgicaly. But there are only 2 4th gen 1873 kits. One for a straight stock, and one for a pistol grip stock.

Jackaroo, # 29989 Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Never had any experience with a C $ I kit, so I had no idea. I do notice that the 4th Gen link slots are not straight but have a kink in them? Does that make it run better.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if it's the kink that makes them run better or the overall quality of the kit, but the C&I I put on my 1873 is unquestionably better and smoother than the PGW that was previously on it. C&I are the best I've used so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It begs the question, if they're that good against the opposition, why are you selling them? Do you think at 3 years they are past their prime?

Johnny Meadows,SASS#28485L Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 When the 4th gen kits were very popular, I installed many of them and there was no difference between small caliber and large caliber. The lever was different only between straight stocked and pistol grip stock. I feel that the 4th gen kits were some of the best . Johnny M.
