Introducing the Winchester Model 1873 Short Rifle

Winchester was on hand at the 2014 SHOT Show in Las Vegas for the release of their newest variation on the Winchester Model 1873 Short Rifle, now chambered in .44-40 and .45 Colt. The Model 1873 is also available in .357 Magnum or .38 Special. The 1873 comes from the factory with beautiful case-colored black walnut and traditional brass lifter with caliber inscriptions. Staying true to the classic, the 1873 features an oil-finished walnut stock with a classic, blued steel crescent butt plate and a 20-inch barrel. The 1873 is the perfect rifle for plinking, target shooting and 3-gun. Suggested retail for the Winchester 1873 is $1,579 and it is available now.
