Winchester 1873 anyone?

Post by TX50Cal »

Check out the price on the last rifle on the page. Is it just me or is this just a bit too high?

I have a 1960 Ford Tbird Conv. Very special Car , Made in 1952. If You'll buy that I'll throw in the Golden Gate.
Correct Me if I am wrong ( and I'm sure U will ) but didn't they start the 1873s in 1873 , Hence the model designation? just curious.
Maybe it was a Johnny Cash special , He just didn't write a song about it.

Do you suppose he is actually selling an 1860 Henry, and put up the wrong pic? :lol:

Just your basic pre-73 1873. Naturally he's in Florida ... aren't they all. :(
