Functionally, the Model 1873 Sporter continues to impress with modern refinements that honor its vintage roots. The classic rifle-style forearm offers a secure, traditional hold, while the semi-buckhorn rear sight paired with a Marble’s gold bead front sight ensures fast and accurate target acquisition. A steel loading gate enhances durability and smoothness during reloading, and the receiver’s top tang is drilled and tapped for those seeking to add a tang-mounted rear sight for even more precise shooting. The crescent buttplate nestles naturally into the shoulder, providing a solid shooting foundation in various positions. Altogether, this rifle is not only a nostalgic tribute to the golden era of lever-action firearms but also a capable, well-crafted rifle suited for collectors and shooters alike.
