M1873 Altered Model


She's a handsome beast, isn't she?

Uberti went all the way on doing the small details matching the real deal.
"Bullseye" ejector.
Front mounted axis pin retainer screw instead of a side-mounted plunger.  I don't know what the U marking or the '1519' mean.  It's the Uberti trademark and catalog number!


It's covered in "RAC" proof marks after Rinaldo A Carr.

CZ for "made in 2020".
ATF would have kittens, but this is where the Army put the serial number.
The Pietta version of this gun laser burns this cartouche.  Uberti presses it like it's supposed to be.
Every part marked with an RAC, except the grips, has the serial number (or part of it) too.

The cylinder also gets Italian proof marks.


The extra barrel length, for me, is entirely cosmetically necessary.

I was surprised to find that my Armi San Marco made EMF New Dakota has an undersized grip.
