    Miroku Winchester 1873 in .357Mag: The usual question

    Hi there! I know this question has probably been done to death, but I have never seen a conclusive answer to it. Miroku (and Uberti) both make their 1873 Winchester in .357Mag.

    Hello, so I've bought a factory-new Uberti 1873 Carbine with a 19" barrel in .357 Magnum about a month ago, and I am sad to say, I'm less than happy with it. I've done extensive research on the internet before I decided to go for this gun, which showed basically universal agreement that the...

    Heritage Mfg. 12-shot 1873 SAA in .22LR?

    Did anyone else catch a mention of Heritage Manufacturing's (now owned by Taurus) 12-shot 1873 SAA in .22LR on Tom Gresham's "Gun Talk?" I couldn't find mention of it on their website or the Internet. If it's of good quality I would really like to get one with a 7.5" barrel. I wonder what...
