Uberti 1873 Competition Rifle 342905, .357 Magnum – 20″ Barrel, A-Grade Walnut Stock
The Uberti 1873 Competition Rifle 342905 is a finely tuned version of the legendary Winchester Model 1873, chambered in .357 Magnum. Known as the “rifle that won the West,” the 1873 became famous for its reliability, versatility, and ease of use. Uberti’s Competition model takes this historic lever-action rifle to the next level, optimized for speed, accuracy, and smooth operation in today’s Cowboy Action Shooting competitions and sport shooting events.
A True Western Icon, Built for Competition
When Winchester released the original Model 1873, it quickly became a favorite among pioneers, lawmen, and outlaws. Its popularity soared when Colt began chambering the legendary Peacemaker revolver in the same caliber, allowing cowboys to carry a single cartridge belt for both their rifle and sidearm. Uberti has recreated this iconic firearm with modern craftsmanship and enhancements that make it a favorite among competitors and collectors alike.
Designed for Fast, Smooth Shooting
The Uberti 1873 Competition Rifle features a short-stroke lever, designed to reduce cycling distance and speed up follow-up shots—an essential advantage in Cowboy Action competitions. Its gold bead front sight provides quick target acquisition, while the smooth trigger pull and precise fit make it a reliable rifle for high-speed, accuracy-driven shooting events.
Weighing 8 lbs. with a 20-inch barrel and total length of 39 inches, this rifle balances perfectly between stability and maneuverability. The added weight helps control recoil, keeping the shooter on target for faster, smoother strings of fire.
Premium Craftsmanship and Aesthetic Appeal
Uberti is renowned for producing historically faithful reproductions with modern improvements. The Competition Rifle showcases an A-grade walnut shotgun-style buttstock for comfort and control. The case-hardened steel frame paired with a blued steel barrel ensures durability while maintaining a historically authentic appearance. This blend of old-world craftsmanship and modern engineering makes the 1873 Competition Rifle as much a collector’s piece as it is a competition-ready firearm.
