TC 73 9MM Lever Gun

[VanMan]

Got in my Taylor's & Co TC73, a 1873 pattern lever gun in 9mm. Beautiful case color hardening and very solid-hefty feel to the rifle. Will post some videos later

Very nice

Running some rounds through it. Good case ejection, but with only a single extractor on top it’s not throwing brass like my other lever guns

Oh wow, that’s not throwing the cases out hard at all. Do you have to work the action quickly for reliable ejection?

 

[VanMan]

the lever does need to be actioned firmly

Very nice. These are US made rifles, or an Italian import?

The packaging is marked with "100% MADE IN THE USA". It is a solid rifle that feels heavier than my Marlins & Winchesters
