The Cimarron 1873 Saddle Rifle in .357 Magnum/.38 Special (brand part no. CA2010G35) reproduces the slab-sided saddle rifle favored by post-1874 Texas Rangers and well-known Old West figures, built around an 18-inch barrel for handy, close-quarters carry. Cimarron Firearms finishes the receiver in case hardening over a blued 18-inch barrel and pairs it with a straight walnut stock, and runs a 1-in-16-inch rate of twist for consistent accuracy. The lever action feeds from a tubular magazine with a 10-round capacity and ships at approximately 9.4 pounds. Among lever action rifles, the 1873 Saddle Rifle favors Old West enthusiasts and cowboy-action shooters who want the historically favored saddle-carry configuration.
