Saddle rings were made to clip a carbine onto a rider's sling, and Cimarron fits one on this 1873 Carbine. The barrel measures 19 inches, and the rifle is chambered in .45 Long Colt.

A carbine this size is built for work. It rides in a scabbard, swings quickly, and carries lightly across a day of fence-checking. The 1873 action is slim and smooth, with a lever that moves easily once you learn the rhythm. The .45 Colt shoots with a mild push that keeps follow-up shots fast.

Pairing the rifle with a .45 Colt revolver keeps your ammunition list short, and that matters for both cowboy matches and chores around the place. Deer and hogs fall inside moderate range with good bullets, where state rules allow a .45 Colt rifle.

The saddle ring adds a touch of authenticity and a practical spot for a sling. Keep the loading gate clean, oil the action, and wipe the barrel after use. The carbine ships to your FFL dealer, where the background check is completed before you take it home.
