In my little country to get one of these. Uberti 1883 Burgess in 45 Colt. I havent had the time to shoot it yet, but its the first rifle ever, that I dont want to take apart, to slick up the action. Both action and trigger are smooth as butter. What do You think?
Looks very nice. Hope it gives you many hours of enjoyment.

Gongrats ! - I'm sure you'll be the envy of all your fellow levergunners, over there !
Remember that, although new, internally it's really an 1873 Winchester, so please refrain from putting strenuous loads, that a Model 92 would easily digest, through it.

May your rifle always shoot straight, your mag never run dry, you always have one more round than you have adversaries, and your good mate always be there to watch your back.
Because I can!

Hobie, Taylor's will take an order for a Burgess in .44-40, they advised it was available, but the waiting list is 60-70 days. You can reserve one by e-mail.

TRUISM: if guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns. So, my advice is: Buy more guns!
Of course, your "little country" WAS once the scourge of the World...
So hoist a flagon, put on a horned helm, and raise the Uberti to Niefelheim and lay waste to Europe...

That is a beautiful little rifle. I'm glad they're making repros of some of these old guns. Please keep us informed as to how it shoots and handles.
