I’ve had that chart for some time, It is very expensive chart to fill.
  

I can imagine. Do we know for sure (verified somewhere?) that some of those are actually “1 of 1”? Good luck with that!

ARMAX is a Buffalo Bill Historical Center publication. I’d bet one of the researchers went through the available records in the archives.   Finding the rifle is the issue.

That will be a labor of love, that hunt!
  

Adding to the difficulty is that many of the rifles with longer than standard barrels have been found cut down to a more manageable length.

Ok, I’ll bite. Here is a nice ’73 I picked up in Cody. Although the 32 Cal. usually isn’t as appealing as a large bore would have been, I really like the case-hardened frame and early graduated peep. Most CC ’73’s I come across are deluxe guns. This rifle also has a trapdoor butt, normally not found on a 32 Cal. rifle.

Congrats!

I also like the nice high condition 73! I’m especially fond of the thick base tang sight!

 

Thanks for sharing,

Tony

Gary, I like it a lot.  Put another sight on the front and you would have a very nice mid range target rifle.  Ben probably has a Lyman or a Beech.

Very nice score, Gary! No complaints from me on the 32, truly a wonderful little cartridge.

I really would have thought an astute collector such as yourself would have noticed all the tang sights that mysteriously vanished from your guns at the last few shows. I learned to be really fast with my Harbor Freight screwdrivers.

Thanks for the compliments, fellows.
