German Jim Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 This is probably a personal preference (maybe not), what would be your choice for a short stroke kit for an Uberti/Cimarron '73 short rifle in 38-40? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I installed a PGW Super Short stroke kit in my 1873 and a C45S carrier. I don't know that it's made me any faster, but... it sure makes working the lever less work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarheel Doc Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Cowboys and Indians 5th gen. I have the entire set up. Carrier, kit and lever. Very pleased Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 I'm going to say C&I third generation. The shorter the stroke, the more work needs to be done to lighten the action. The shortest strokes might be needed for the "machine-gun" shooters, but I doubt you will be shooting a 38-40 that fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think so either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Springfield Slim SASS #24733 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Pioneer standard. I can show you mine or Thunder's at the next shoot. Since we both shoot BP we really can't get fast enough to really need a super short stroke. It does help the gun easier to keep on target without so much arm motion.

Anvil Al #59168 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Cowboys and Indians 5th gen for me. Have it in both my rifles. Shotgun Boogie's would work for me also. To many problems with some others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 All of mine are cut and weld and I’m happy with them. I have a Colt McAllister, a Jimmy Spurs and a Cody Conagher. Randy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Coffinmaker Posted June 15, 2022 Share Posted June 15, 2022 Cowboys and Indian have the Cadillac of Short Stroke Kits. They are cartridge specific, as in large bore and small bore to make your life much simpler. You will also need to change out the Main Spring and Lever Side Springs. For lever side springs I would recommend Slix (minor fitting required) and the Firing Pin Return Spring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
