The Cimarron Firearms Co Uberti 1873 Sporting Rifle in .357/38 Special is a faithful reproduction of the lever-action that defined the American frontier. Built on the original Winchester 1873 design, this 24-inch barreled rifle combines authentic Old West aesthetics with practical handling for hunting, sport shooting, and historical recreation. Whether you're drawn to lever-gun hunting, Cowboy Action Shooting, or simply appreciate the ergonomics and reliability of nineteenth-century rifle engineering, the 1873 Sporting remains one of the most versatile and iconic firearms ever made.
The .357/38 Special/.357 Magnum chambering offers real versatility: shoot economical .38 Special rounds for reduced recoil and cost, or step up to .357 Magnum for hunting-capable power. The 24-inch barrel strikes a practical balance—long enough for velocity and sight radius, short enough for quick handling from saddle, truck, or woodland. Cimarron's Uberti-manufactured action delivers the smooth, reliable lever cycling that made the original famous, with a solid frame and traditional wood furniture that feel as good as they look.
This is a rifle built for use, not just display. The 1873 platform has proven itself across more than a century and a half of hunting, ranching, and sport shooting. Modern shooters favor it for its low recoil management (especially in .38 Special), intuitive manual of arms, and ability to engage targets quickly without optics—though the classic receiver does accept scout-style mounts if you want to modernize. Cimarron's fit and finish set the standard for reproductions; expect quality walnut furniture and tight tolerances that reward regular shooting with reliable performance.
Cowboy Action Shooting competitors, lever-gun hunters, and collectors recognize the 1873 Sporting as the gun that started the modern rifle cartridge era. In Cimarron's .357/38 variant, you get historical authenticity married to practical ammunition economy and ballistic sense.
