Cimarron 1873 Sporting Rifle | .45 Long Colt | 13+1

The Cimarron 1873 Sporting Rifle is a traditional lever-action chambered for .45 Long Colt and built with a straight walnut stock and a case-hardened receiver. It combines period-correct styling with modern production standards for a sporting rifle suited to range use and period shooting events. A mid-power variable scout or low-power riflescope will complement the rifle without obscuring its classic lines; consider a Vortex Crossfire II 2-7×32 as a reliable optic option under $1,000. This rifle is appropriate for cowboy action and recreational range shooting.
