Uberti 1873 Deluxe 150th Anniversary Rifle 342812 – .45 Colt, 20″ Octagon Barrel, A-Grade Walnut Stock
The Uberti 1873 Deluxe 150th Anniversary Rifle is a finely crafted lever-action rifle that celebrates one of the most influential firearms in American history—the Winchester 1873. Known as “The Gun That Won the West,” the original 1873 forever changed the landscape of American firearms by combining a rugged steel frame, smooth lever action, and versatile pistol-caliber chamberings. Uberti honors this historic rifle with a special 150th Anniversary Edition chambered in the timeless .45 Colt.
A Historic Tribute to the 1873 Rifle
When Winchester introduced the Model 1873, it quickly gained legendary status among pioneers, lawmen, cowboys, and settlers across the frontier. Chambered in powerful and readily available pistol cartridges, it became a trusted companion capable of handling most North American game while remaining compact and fast-handling. Its widespread adoption by both civilians and law enforcement made it a true symbol of the Old West.
The Uberti 1873 Deluxe Anniversary Rifle continues that legacy. Featuring a 20-inch octagonal barrel and an engraved steel frame, this rifle is not only functional but also an heirloom-quality piece that pays homage to its historical roots. Its A-grade satin walnut stock and case-hardened receiver bring together the durability of a working rifle with the artistry of 19th-century firearms engraving.
Functional Elegance – Designed to Be Used
While many engraved rifles are treated as collectibles, Uberti designed this 150th Anniversary model with practical shooting in mind. Its sturdy all-steel construction makes it robust enough for regular use at the range or in the field. Whether you are shooting for sport, historical reenactment, Cowboy Action competitions, or hunting, this rifle blends classic design with modern reliability.
Unlike heavy sporting rifles, the handy 20-inch barrel keeps this lever-action compact and well-balanced. Its manageable size allows it to be carried easily on foot or stored in a saddle scabbard, just like the originals of the 1870s. At 8.2 lbs, it offers enough weight to absorb recoil while remaining light enough for all-day carry.
