The Uberti 1866 Rifle faithfully recreates one of the most iconic lever-action firearms of the American frontier. Known as the “Yellowboy” for its distinctive brass receiver, the Model 1866 introduced several advancements over the Henry rifle, including a side loading gate, separate magazine tube, wooden forearm, and adjustable sights. Featuring a brass frame, octagonal barrel, blued steel components, and walnut stock, this classic rifle delivers authentic Old West styling and proven lever-action performance.
