    That stock looks great with the oil finish. I have two Uberti 1873s, one exactly like yours and another in short rifle configuration. The shorty is very nice, half octagonal, half round barrel. Uberti does a very good job with these, I have an original to compare side by side, you have to look hard to see any differences.

      I love the half octagon! I'm so torn on a new Ruger Marlin 1894 in stainless or one of these with a 18 1/2 inch half octagon barrel.

    You need a blank in that mid-barrel dovetail cut... love your vids Hickcok. That 73 looks great. These are all the rage now in CAS with "short stroke" kits. IMHO, that's "gaming" as there was nothing of the kind in the period... but it is what it is... I personally have purchased a Rossi R92 in 45 Colt to shoot even though it doesn't help me be competitive but that's OK. I just enjoy the whole experience and comradery.

    I have a kind of unusual version maybe a bit older and marked "Navy Arms" but it is made in Italy also.. it is the 30" barrel with the sporting wood meaning it is checkered and has a pistol grip. The gun is really pretty and is in 44-40 as were the originals. The 73 has about the slickest action ever.

      The movie studios should get somebody to refinish the Italian firearms they use in Westerns. It's a dead give-away that the revolvers and lever guns are Italian reproductions, at least for anybody who knows firearms.
