Picked mine up yesterday.

Chaparral .45-60 x 26".  Looks good, functions fine.  Lever safety gizzie is gonna wear me out if I don't lighten the spring.

I have 20 rounds of smokeless coming from a friend and dies were just ordered so I can get BP loads.

Pictures and report later.
People like me are the reason people like you have the right to bitch about people like me.

Howdy Folks!
I ordered mine from Cimarron Firearms via Sports World on Wednesday. They said I should get it next week. I ordered it in .45-60 thinking that I could easily cut down .45-70 brass if I had to. Then I started looking around the internet to order loaded ammunition. Great Scott! that ammo is expensive. I'm thinking I should have ordered .45-75 or .45-90 because I have found it cheaper and components seem to be more readily available. I have not been able to find any reloading data for smokeless powder. Anyway I'm looking forward to getting the rifle, working up some loads and hunting with it next deer season in the Osage.

Howdy, Boys!

The Yukon Rose and I just rolled back into town from our holiday trip out to aggravate the relations! ;D  Great trip and got to see the new Grandson to boot!  Handsome little tusker - must take after his grandpa!  Har! :D

I want to extend a welcome to the fire to nitroexpress, Cross-Stixs, Llano County and my pard, Harve Curry.  Good to have you boys with us! :)

Hey Griz! It would be an honor if you would throw me on that list! I have been missing something for 30 yrs shooting my 1881 made 73 and have been tempted too many times to get a 86 but always in the back of my mind I didn't click with it's lines. I have aquired many levers over the years but have always felt something was missing...crazy,huh? Thanks for the imput on my other post asking which caliber to hook up with this model. Still throwing up practical vs aplicable vs dream'n.

Welcome to the fire, WhiteWolfDakota! :)  You will find lots of folks here who are fascinated with the 1876.  After all, it is the most elegant expression of the Victorian gunmaker's art. ;)

Grizzly Adams,

Would you be so kind as to add my name to the Winchester 1876  Membership Roster.  [ Justin O Lawman ]

I picked up the Chaparral 76 Carbine I ordered from CDNN last night. It is one of the mis-spelled Daly Guns.

The gun seems to be a keeper.

Thanks
Justin O Lawman
