The Cimarron Firearms Co Nueces '73 in 45 LC is a historically inspired lever-action rifle built for shooters who appreciate authentic Old West heritage and serious stopping power. Chambered in 45 LC with a 24.25-inch heavy round barrel, this rifle carries real historical weight: it's styled after the lever guns that armed the Texas Rangers during their patrols of the Nueces Strip—that lawless border country between the Rio Grande and the Nueces River. If you're into Cowboy Action Shooting, hunting with classic rifles, or simply want a serious 45 LC lever gun with genuine historical character, this Cimarron delivers both performance and story.
The barrel comes stamped with the distinctive 'T * S' marking, a nod to the Texas Ranger issue rifles of the era. That heavy profile barrel isn't just for looks; it provides the mass you need for stable handling and sustained accuracy, whether you're working steel at distance or hunting medium game. The 45 LC cartridge has proven itself across more than a century as a reliable, versatile round, and a modern rifle like this one takes full advantage of modern ammunition advances while maintaining period authenticity.
Cimarron has built a solid reputation among cowboy action competitors and classic rifle enthusiasts for attention to detail and shootability. The Nueces '73 bridges the gap between collectible aesthetics and working rifle practicality—it's not a safe queen, but a rifle you can actually hunt and compete with, day in and day out.
