The Cimarron 1886 in .45-70 Government (brand part no. AS188645-70PG) reproduces John Browning’s strongest lever-action design, built around a full 26-inch octagon barrel and an upgraded pistol-grip walnut stock. Cimarron Firearms finishes the frame in traditional case coloring over a blued barrel, and runs a 1-in-18-inch rate of twist tuned for heavy .45-70 bullets. The lever action feeds from a tubular magazine with an 8-round capacity and includes adjustable sights for traditional big-bore hunting aim. Among lever action rifles, the 1886 favors big-game hunters who want a full-length, pistol-grip-stocked .45-70 lever gun.
