The Cimarron 1873 Saddle Lever-Action Centerfire Rifle was inspired by one of the most famous rifles of the Old West! It was Winchester's first centerfire arm, which was manufactured from 18731919 with more than 541,000 turned out before 1900. This lever-action rifle was produced in a number of variations from short Trapper models and carbines to short and extra-long barreled rifles. The premier choice of the post-1874 Texas Rangers, this slab-sided saddle rifle was also favored by such well-known Westerners as Pat Garrett, William F. Cody, Montana Rancher Granville Stuart, and outlaws Butch Cassidy, Belle Starr, and Billy the Kid. Winchester's first centerfire arm Slab-sided design Reliable lever action
