As I mentioned too over on that lever action thread, I have the Uberti .45 Colt in the 1866 model with the 24 1/4 bbl...The biggest regret I have there is, if I had to do it over, I'd go with the 20" bbl.

I looked at the Henry too in the 1866 Model, but the Uberti almost fell into my lap...I was able to get it locally.

Too as mentioned, I was more partial to the side loading gate, instead of the tube...The only thing I've heard ...bad..about the Henry tube loading is they were more prone to get dirty....But who crawls around in the dirt with one!!!!!

My 1866 model is in brass, yes, looks just like the 73 in steel. Maybe I just like the bling, ya spose?????
