Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Winchester 1873 in .45 Colt with a 24-inch barrel, blued finish, and color case–hardened receiver is a striking modern continuation of the rifle often called “The Gun That Won the West,” blending 19th-century charm with the craftsmanship and materials expected of a high-quality reproduction. Chambered in .45 Colt—a caliber originally intended for revolvers but now beloved in lever-action platforms for its mild recoil and versatility—the 1873 delivers smooth, reliable cycling thanks to its iconic toggle-link action, a mechanism prized for its glassy lever throw and mechanical elegance. The 24-inch octagonal barrel gives the rifle a classic profile and provides a long sight radius, aiding precision whether the shooter is on the range, in competition, or practicing traditional marksmanship. Its deep blue barrel and magazine tube contrast beautifully with the color–case–hardened receiver, lever, where the mottled blues, purples, and straw hues highlight the vintage aesthetic that Winchester enthusiasts and collectors adore. The walnut stock and forend, usually straight-grained with a satin or oil finish, offer both period-correct styling and excellent ergonomics, balancing the added weight of the long barrel to produce a steady, natural point of aim. Typical buckhorn or semi-buckhorn sights complete the rifle’s heritage look while remaining surprisingly functional, and the rifle’s overall heft gives it a smooth recoil impulse and excellent follow-through with .45 Colt ammunition. Whether owned for cowboy-action competition, historical interest, or simply the pleasure of shooting a beautifully finished lever gun, a Winchester 1873 in this configuration stands out as a faithful and finely crafted example of an American firearms icon—one that captures the handling, artistry, and spirit that made the original 1873 a legend.
