Winchester 73 or Uberti 73 :?:

I had a Uberti 73 SRC it was a tube loader not sure about the genuine Winchester.

And welcome to the fire... :D

.
I'm not familiar with the gun or part in question, but if someone built the part 150 years ago I'm sure it can be built today. Obviously the other question is whether it's worth the effort but I've made some parts for obsolete guns myself and it just took a while and some patience, so wound up being worth it.

You can buy magazine tubing in various lengths, and then drill the various holes to fit any gun, and cut to exact length. Redman's liners used to sell bare mag tubes and also blued.
