I was looking through the new Jerry's Sports dealer catalog and what should my wondering eyes do I see, a lousy picture of a 1876(?) in 45-70. No price but there's never prices on the Berrettas anyway. Anybody else seen or heard anything about this?
Edit: Now I understand it can't be a 1876 because there's no way to get a case that long to cycle through the 76 action. But then they called it a cowboy replica, or western replica or something like that. Sorry, didn't have a pen or notebook with me. I should have wrote it all down but there wasn't very much there. Understand it was just a small photo on newsprint so there wasn't much detail available to me from that sale catalog.
New Berretta 1876 in 45-70?

Ok From the ad in Jerry's The picture looked more like a 76 than anything else but considering the size of the photograph, it could be a 1886. They give no clues in the ad. Berretta has nothing on their website about it.
