I'm not a big lever gun guy, forgive me, but I'm assuming that gun operates smoother than an 1894? And an 1892 or no?

I posted before engaging brain. I was thinking Taylor, but typing Chiappa. Doesn't mean that they won't introduce one in the future, but with my talent for mis-posting, I don't want a reputation for being psychic. Sorry! |

My understanding is that most 16" leverguns in revolver calibers hold 7-8 rounds. Looks like a great hiking rifle either way!

I have a miroku 1873 Winchester and love it
I have owned italian made copies and they are fine weapons but the Miroku is even better in my opinion The thing I don’t like about the Italian clones is that the lever droops slightly when not in use. The originals I have handled and the Miroku the lever doesn’t droop. |

I have not done the research, but as far as I know Taylor is just a marketing company - guns are made under contract by others. Unless they have an exclusive contract - I suspect they will eventually show up very similar under different labels. Except for odd ducks, most of the Taylor's look remarkable like Cimarron's and Uberti's (I think that is the source manufacturer). That said, I think once upon a time, Cimarron had a few other sources.
That said, the last 2 Taylor's I got had some aftermarket parts put in by them. I don't know if they made those parts, or just got them and put them in before selling them. That said, the only way to get those pistols were either to get them from Taylor - or have a gun smith do the modifications which would have cost even more. |

Eventually I'll get one in 357 or 38 if that's a thing. The Uberti guns I've seen and handled looked great.

I run a 18" half round half octagon barrel. The length allows me to hold the gun steady unsupported when shooting in the desert. Hits on a 5 gallon painters bucket are very easy at 125 yards using 255 grn ammo. It compliments my Custer 45 SAA. I can hit the painters bucket at 125 yards but I run 200 grn bullets in the pistol and it usually takes a couple shots to walk into the painters bucket. These 2 guns (in 44-40) paired with a mustang or Nez Perce horse would have been good investments in the old west or today.
