Here is what the manufacturer calls a faithful replica of the famous open top, iron frame receiver patterned on Oliver Winchester’s key employee Nelson King, who hit upon the loading gate and wood forend development, an important step between the 1860 Henry Rifle and the form that traditional lever action rifles embody even today. Photos show a specimen from a small lot we got on a distributor closeout, a 24 inch Octagonal Barrel Carbine chambered in the venerable .45 Long Colt caliber. This well balanced carbine weighs in at only 7 pounds 8 ounces, and its center of gravity is 2 inches forward of the juncture between barrel and receiver, exactly where it’s supposed to be. Barrel, tube, and buttplate are all nicely blued with a hint of purplish hue, marking is Chaparral Arms in front of the traditional set-screw anchored dovetailed traditional buckhorn type rear sight, with the words Cal .45 Colt behind the sight elevator; on the flat to the right of the top flat is marked, Heritage Mfg. Inc. Opa Locka FL USA Made in Italy. Serial number is on the bottom tang above the lever. Upper tang is marked Model 1866. The 13 shot magazine tube, like the barrel, screws, hammer, trigger, forend cap and lever locking key are blue steel; and the receiver is handsome color casehardened steel. Shell carrier mechanism and ammunition storage plate on the buttplate are solid brass, and the carrier of course mates at the bottom of the receiver. Forend and buttstock are Italian walnut with occasional shelfwear creases like the photo specimen shows only one of, on the left side of its buttstock. These rifles have been displayed, but never loaded, fired, or transferred; they are in their original boxes with all their papers. We only have a handful of them. Chaparral Arms, of course, is an Italian based company with relations to two great companies, Charter Arms and Armi San Marco. Similar Italian-made rifles from competitors Uberti and Navy Arms command prices upwards of $1000 - $1500 per unit. We have not been able to offer any quality 1866 or Henry type rifles in this price range for many years, not since the 1970s. We’re offering these beautiful rifles, the rifle in the photo or one of its identical mates, each for only $ 639.00. 2% discount if payment is by USPS Money Order and not credit card. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> $20 flat fee lower 48 states; $50 Alaska, Hawaii or Puerto Rico, UPS Ground with full insurance coverage.

Don't let your buddies use your account. Registered user must be the buyer, with his or her own money. Buying firearms and related items for other people can result in felony charges. Don't try, either, to circumvent any law; for example, a California civilian may not buy a high capacity magazine and have it shipped to his brother-in-law in Nevada. That is a felony.
