Uberti 1866 yellow boy

[Garyg]

Has uberti fixed the problem with the loading gates breaking with the 1866? I was looking at buying a 1866 or 1873 lever in 45 colt.

Try asking over at http://www.cascity.com/forumhall/, in the Henry and Winchester 73 sections.

I have a new 66 and no problems yet. Wasn't aware was a problem?

If you go to that cascity web site they have some good info on the 1866. How do you like yours?

I own one for more than 12 years and never had any issues yet. The loading gate is cheap and easy to replace anyway if it ever breaks.

I love mine, wood on her is gorgeous. My wife bought it for me on my 30th birthday so ithas sentimental value. She also bought me a Uberti Henry 1860 for an engagement present a few years ago. She's my favourite wife
