Does anyone or has anyone made a .44 spl only levergun?

Post by Jason_W »

I know a .44 mag will take .44 spls, or light .44 mag loads, but I'm looking for something a little different. I could go with a .44 WCF (which is likely), but for some reason the idea of a dedicated .44 spl lever action seems interesting to me.

If you wander over to the Buffalo Arms website, you will find the Uberti 1873 Winchester available in .44 Spl.

I, for one, think that it is a nearly ideal cartridge for a levergun such as the 1873.
Sure wish I had $1100 to scratch that itch. :D

I believe Uberti also makes a .44 Special-only 1866 as well. Probably available (1873 too) through www.cimarron-firearms and www.taylorsfirearms.com in adition to Buffalo.

Buffalo Arms sell the Uberti and Uberti made Cimmarron 73 clones in 44 special.
Dixie Gunworks also has one listed on occasion.
