 I took some photos of my model 1873 44-40 SRC (made in 1891). This was my second Winchester purchase of three so far. 

Nice mechanical condition and looks good too for an original 1873 44-40 SRC. Hard to find nice ones. 

Thank you in advance for your views and comments. Photos will enlarge.

Kevin,

Those are some really nice Wins to have in your collection.

I hope you get a chance to put a few rounds through them and experience the fun of it !

Thanks Bill.

This one here would be a good candidate as has a real nice bore. Perhaps I will pick up some suitable ammo in Reno next week. 

See you there!
