Uberti 1876, 1886 & 1894 Lever-action Rifles

Beyond the 1873 and 1866, Uberti reproduces three later Winchester lever-action platforms built for progressively larger cartridges: the 1876 Centennial, the 1886, and the 1894. Each is a distinct action, not a variant of the others — Impact Guns carries the 1876 in .50-95, the 1886 in .45-70, and the 1894 Carbine in the classic .30-30.

1876 Centennial: The First Big-Bore Winchester Lever Gun

The 1876 Centennial was Winchester's first lever gun built for full-power rifle cartridges rather than the pistol-caliber rounds the 1866 and 1873 were limited to. Uberti's reproduction chambers it in .50-95, a genuinely large-bore round with real recoil and stopping power, paired with a 28" barrel and A-Grade walnut stock.

1886: A Stronger Action for Heavier Cartridges

The 1886, originally designed by John Browning, uses a stronger vertical-locking-bolt action than the 1873's toggle-link, enabling even more powerful cartridges. Uberti's reproduction is chambered in .45-70 Government, available as a 25.5" Sporting Rifle or a shorter 22" Hunter Lite configuration for a lighter, more maneuverable rifle.

1894: The Smokeless-Powder-Era Classic

The 1894 is the platform most shooters know today — Winchester's smokeless-powder-era lever gun and one of the best-selling rifles in American history. Uberti's 1894 Carbine reproduction chambers the classic .30-30 Winchester in a 20" barrel, the pairing most associated with deer hunting since the cartridge's introduction.

Which Platform Fits Your Cartridge

If you want the biggest, most dramatic big-bore lever gun, the 1876 in .50-95 is the choice. If you want a versatile .45-70 with real modern ammunition availability, the 1886 fits. If you want the most familiar, most widely-supported lever-action cartridge for deer hunting, the 1894 in .30-30 is the practical pick.
