1873 Carbine .44 Mag 19” Round
Blue Barrel
The 1866 was already quite popular when the smaller, yet quite similar 1873 model was released. It
became an immediate favorite. The Winchester Repeating Arms Company may have thought that do-
mestic military sales would make up most of the orders for the firearm, but in fact, civilian sales and
international military purchases were what brought in profit that year. In that day, the 1873 was the
first lever action available with a broad variety of options. Today, an array of options is still offered on
fine reproduction models by Taylor’s & Company.
