#repeating rifle
The Winchester Repeating Rifle is a name for a line of lever action rifles made by Winchester. The Model 1873 Winchester Repeater coined the term “The Gun that Won the West.” It became one of the most widely used repeating rifles on the frontier along side the Henry Repeater off which it was based. Over 720,000 were produced between 1873 and 1923. As cartridges became more and more powerful the design of the Winchester Repeating Rifle had to be upgraded to withstand the greater pressures. The ‘73 was produced in .44-40, .38-40, and .32-20 – which this example is chambered for. -R
