Model 1873 Repeating Rifle – Brass Finish (Non-Firing Replica)
Denix’s most realistic replica yet, this Model 1873 captures the lines and mechanics of the classic lever-action. Cycle the lever to “load,” “fire,” and eject the included dummy cartridges while the metal and brass-finish furniture complement the handsome wooden stock and forearm. The rifle is built for display, education, costuming, theater, and film—it cannot be made to fire.
Introduced in the 1870s, the Model 1873 became the most widely used rifle of its era. Its strong steel construction and lever-action mechanism allowed fast follow-up shots, and many versions used the same center-fire cartridges as contemporary revolvers—letting frontiersmen carry one ammunition type for both gun and rifle. Produced in huge numbers across the West, it earned the nickname “The Gun That Won the West.” The rifle later inspired the classic 1950 film Winchester ’73 starring James Stewart.
