The 1873 Model became an immediate favorite upon it's release by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. Thoughts were that the domestic military sales would make up most of the orders for the lever action, but this model ended up being more popular with civilians and international military.
The 1873 Rifle was the first lever-action available with broad variety of options, and it's still offered today in many varieties to meet all types of shooter's needs. This Taylors & Company 1873 Taylor Tuned Rifle features a case hardened frame with a blued barrel and a classic smooth walnut stock and forend. The Taylor tuning includes a custom action with hand polishing, custom hammer and lever springs, custom magazine tube spring, and an overall lightened action (has no short-stroke links and no leather).
Taylors & Company's custom actions feature one of the smoothest hammer and trigger pulls on the market.
