What Buyers Ask
Does this carbine shoot .38 Special as well as .357 Magnum?
Yes, it cycles both reliably. We recommend .38 Special for light recoil and .357 Magnum for full-power loads. The action handles both without adjustments.
Is the 20″ barrel shorter than the rifle version?
Yes, the rifle has a 24″ barrel. This carbine is 4 inches shorter overall, making it handier in tight spaces — good for hunting or CAS side matches.
Are these made by Miroku in Japan?
Yes, Winchester 1873s are manufactured by Miroku in Japan under the Winchester brand. Quality is excellent — tight fit, smooth action, and consistent accuracy right out of the box.
