Reverend Leadslinga Posted August 18, 2022 Posted August 18, 2022 Looking for a forend for Uberti 1873 Oct. 18". 357 I would have thought they are all the same but maybe not. I notice for example on the VTI Gun parts site they have 24" and 20" listed separately with different part numbers? (They dont have any) Any way mine has the 18" Oct barrel Rev
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted August 18, 2022 Posted August 18, 2022 The forearm on the short barrels is shorter. If you put a rifle forearm on a carbine or short rifle it looks out of proportion.
Abilene, SASS # 27489 Posted August 18, 2022 Posted August 18, 2022 The 18" barrel uses the same forend as 20". Also try Taylors and Cimarron, maybe Dixie.
el Pueblo Posted August 19, 2022 Posted August 19, 2022 I have available a forend from a .44 special 1866 short rifle (20'' octagonal barrel). (End cap is brass.) Don't know if it would fit a .357, maybe others more knowledgeable could chime in. el Pueblo
