The Winchester 1873 Deluxe lever-action rifle in .45 Colt is a modern iteration of America's most iconic rifle—built for hunters and shooters who value authenticity, smooth handling, and classic caliber performance. This 24½-inch octagon-to-round barrel model combines traditional aesthetics with practical features, making it equally at home on a hunting expedition or at the range. The .45 Colt's ballistics suit medium game and cowboy action shooting, while the lever action's ergonomics and reliability have remained unchanged for over 150 years.
The Deluxe model distinguishes itself with Grade V/VI walnut furniture and meticulous metal finishing. The receiver, side plates, lever, forearm cap, and butt plate are all color case hardened, while the barrel wears a gloss blue finish. The top tang is drilled and tapped for optional peep sight installation if you want to upgrade optics down the road. At 8 lbs and 43 inches overall, this rifle balances pointability with solid construction—manageable for a full day in the field without fatigue.
Winchester's button-rifled barrel (18¾-inch twist) is optimized for .45 Colt ammunition and delivers the accuracy you expect from a rifle wearing the Winchester name. The shotgun-style butt plate and top tang safety keep controls intuitive and within thumb's reach. With a 14-round magazine capacity and 13-inch length of pull, the 1873 Deluxe is ready for hunting, sport shooting, or simply adding a piece of rifle history to your collection.
