The Cimarron 1866 Yellowboy Sporting Rifle .38-40 Winchester is the 24-inch octagon-barrel version in a classic frontier chambering (part no. CA224). Cimarron marks the chambering as .38 WCF, the same cartridge as the .38-40 Winchester. The brass frame, side loading gate and wood forearm are the traits that define the 1866 design. The long barrel adds sight radius, and the 12-round magazine adds capacity. It comes from Cimarron Firearms.
