Taylors & Company has built a strong reputation for producing high-quality reproductions of historic firearms. The 1873 Carbine model captures the spirit and functionality of the original while incorporating modern improvements for enhanced reliability and shooter comfort. The shorter 19-inch barrel makes this carbine significantly more maneuverable than full-length rifles, making it an excellent choice for shooters who value quick handling and compact size without sacrificing magazine capacity or performance.
Classic 1873 Lever-Action Design
The Taylors & Company 1873 Carbine features the iconic lever-action mechanism that made the Model 1873 one of the most famous rifles in American history. The smooth lever throw allows for fast follow-up shots, which is especially beneficial in cowboy action shooting competitions. The rifle is equipped with a handsome walnut stock and forearm that provide a traditional look and comfortable feel during extended shooting sessions. The straight-grip stock and classic carbine-style forearm give this rifle an authentic Western appearance that appeals to both historical firearms enthusiasts and modern shooters.
The 19-inch barrel strikes an excellent balance between portability and ballistic performance. It provides good velocity for the .357 Magnum cartridge while keeping the overall length of the rifle short and easy to handle. This makes the carbine particularly well-suited for use in tight spaces, dense brush, or when quick target acquisition is required.

Versatile .357 Magnum Chambering
One of the biggest advantages of this carbine is its .357 Magnum chambering. This caliber offers excellent versatility because it can safely fire both powerful .357 Magnum loads and milder .38 Special ammunition. This flexibility allows shooters to use less expensive .38 Special ammo for practice and cowboy action competitions while still having the option to load .357 Magnum for increased power when needed. The 10-round tubular magazine provides substantial capacity, giving shooters plenty of rounds before needing to reload.
The .357 Magnum cartridge delivers impressive ballistic performance from a carbine-length barrel, offering flat trajectories and good terminal performance on small to medium game. This makes the 1873 Carbine a practical choice for varmint control, small game hunting, and general recreational shooting.
