Built by Uberti for Cimarron, this rifle uses the classic 1873 toggle-link action with a sliding top dust cover and a right-side loading gate. The Short Rifle configuration pairs a 20-inch octagonal blued barrel with a full-length tubular magazine, offering a traditional profile and handling.
The receiver is color case-hardened steel, matched to a blued barrel and magazine tube. The caliber marking is present on the top flat of the barrel, consistent with period-style roll markings and clear identification.
Furniture includes a gloss-finished hardwood checkered forend with a steel nose cap and a checkered pistol-grip stock that ends in a crescent steel buttplate. The length of pull measures 13.0 inches.
Iron sights consist of a dovetailed blade front and a semi-buckhorn rear with an elevation slider. The barrel uses a 1:18.75 right-hand twist appropriate for .357 Magnum loads.
Capacity is 11+1 with .357 Mag in the full-length tubular magazine. This Italian-made reproduction captures the look and function of the iconic 1873 while maintaining clean, precise fit and finish.
