SHOT Show Question: Uberti?

Post by Wayne Miller »

I guess this question is directed to Jeff...I have to assume that Uberti or Cimarron had a booth. Did either of them have an 1876 Saddle Ring Carbine in .45-60? Any prospects of one? Thanks!

I put a similar bug in Nate's ear the other day, "Hi-Wall in .32-40!"

I can't believe Cimarron doesn't already offer a High Wall in .32-40. They're crazy not to!

From Jeff's S.H.O.T. pics on Gunblast, Charles Daly has an 1866 Carbine & an 1876 Rifle - but no calibers were specified.
There were some EMF/Pedersoli Lightning Rifles & Carbines, too.

Charles Daly's '66 and 76 rifles are Chaparrals...not Ubertis. I owned a Chaparral once. I shan't be repeating that mistake.

AFAIK, Uberti is the sole maker of those 1866 rifles, for everybody, including Cimmarron, Charles Daly, Navy Arms, etc, etc.

Another forum member, Hawkeye78, who has more than a passing experience with them, expounded on the import situation, in another post here a few days ago - wherein he pointed out that various different importers pay for differing grades of quality, all of which are below what Europeans pay for and get.
