    Those Henry Big Boys are great. I have one in 44 mag however, it does no have the extended lever loop you have on yours.

    How about a new production Winchester 1866 short rifle. Shot it for the first time last night and can honestly say it is the smoothest and best built lever rifle I own. I love this rifle.

    That Winnie is a temptress. I'm playing with the idea of getting into CAS

    Same here. I have a Norinco 97 clone and a Stoeger SXS. Plus the 66 Winchester. Also have a 3 screw Blackhawk in 357 so I am set to practice. I do want a Uberti 73 revolver instead of the Blackhawk for shooting the crap out of. My Blackhawk is in great condition, un converted, and old.

    I would need another Smoke Wagon and some sort of .38 carbine that money I don't have at the moment :-(

    I want mine short stroked as well as a 73. My 66 is butter smooth. I cannot imagine it with an action job and short stroke kit.

    IIRC the new Winchester 73s come short-stroked from the factory, since most of them are used by SASS shooters. I'd like to see which one is faster, the short-stroked 73 or my Colt Lightning clone.

    Details and pics (it didn't happen without pics).

    Not sure. I spoke to a man named Johnny Meadows that does a lot of cowboy action work last week. He let me know that the short stroke kits that fit Ubertis no longer fit the new production 66 rifles. We did not speak about the 73 models but I will find out. If they are short stroked that would certainly save a lot of cash.

    I'm several hundred miles away from home, so I can't take a picture of it. Besides, this this a lever action thread, not a pump action thread :innocent0

    So why did you mention a pump action?????:facepalm::facepalm::facepalm:

    But you can post it when you get home. I've never heard of a "clone" of a lightening and lightenings be 'spensive.

    I was talking about drag racing with carbines :P I have a Taurus Thunderbolt, one of the few they made that runs. The first production guns were not very reliable. By the time they got things right, no one wanted to buy one.

    And Taylors has these http://www.taylorsfirearms.com/long-guns/cartridge-rifles/lightning-slide-action-by-uberti.html

    His and hers Uberti 73's in .45LC. She's a much better shot than I am.
