Winchester Model 1873 Sporter .38 Special 24 inch 13+1 Case Hardened Blued Walnut

The Winchester Model 1873 Sporter blends 19th-century style with modern handling in a full-size lever-action rifle that carries the lineage of the legendary Winchester '73, chambered for .38 Special and capable of .357 Magnum rounds with a 13+1 capacity and a 24" octagon barrel that gives you that classic sighting plane and ballistic consistency, while the crowned muzzle preserves accuracy over years of use. The satin-oiled Grade II/III walnut curved pistol-grip stock and classic rifle-style forearm feel velvet smooth in the hand and the crescent buttplate locks into the shoulder for steady offhand, seated or mounted shooting; right-hand configuration suits traditional hunters and cowboy-action competitors alike. A color case-hardened receiver with blued octagon barrel and matching forearm cap delivers corrosion resistance and authentic period looks, while the semi-buckhorn rear with marble arms and gold bead front sight gets you on target quickly and the drilled-and-tapped top tang accepts an optional tang-mounted rear sight for long-range precision or formal target work. With steel receiver and loading gate, standard trigger and hammer safety, 43" overall length, 1:18.75" twist and 8 lb weight, this lever-action rifle requires FFL transfer and is ideal for range work, classic hunting scenarios, and collectors seeking a faithful, shootable Model 1873 Sporter.
