Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Model 1873 Short Rifle is a stunning embodiment of the mystique surrounding this iconic firearm, blending timeless design with modern functionality. With its steel color case-hardened receiver, classic round barrel, and traditional sights, it carries the same rugged reliability and elegance that made the original "Gun That Won The West" legendary over 140 years ago. This rifle is equally at home in the field for hunting or in the arena for cowboy action shooting. The Grade III/IV walnut stock with a satin oil finish offers a velvet-smooth feel, and the classic rifle-style forearm with an integral forearm cap maintains the authentic look and tactile experience of the original Model 1873. The color case hardening on the receiver, lever, crescent buttplate, and forearm cap not only enhances its visual appeal but also provides added protection against corrosion. The crescent buttplate ensures a more secure shoulder hold, improving stability from any shooting position.

The semi-buckhorn rear sight, paired with the marble arms gold bead front sight, allows for quick and precise target acquisition, while the steel loading gate ensures smoother, more reliable loading. Additionally, the receiver's top tang is drilled and tapped, allowing for the installation of an optional tang-mounted rear sight for those seeking even greater precision. This rifle offers a perfect balance of historical homage and modern performance, making it ready to excel in any competition or hunting adventure.
