[QUOTE="db-2, post: 232132, member: 4743"] The magazine tube comes to the end of the barrel. But do not want to modify and if i really wanted to have a model 73 for shooting would purchase a new reproduction one. But not the best if one is to use for hunting. Do have a fair number of weapons with several from the late 1800 or earlier 1900 that have the kids name on them so this one fits in with one of the kids. Gets the 32-20 pistol and holster also. Do have a model 92 (1917) in 25-20 that someone before me spent a bunch on it. Model 92 in 25-20 shot the Jordan buck and still the largest 5 point on record (at least a few years ago it was). that one shoots well and maybe one day if i ever get a rifle tag. Have taken it with me on mule deer but in the past when the time came a 300 weatherby came out. Always a bit to far for a 25-20, However, maybe one day. I do enjoy the older ones. ARs in 223 in my humble opinion are only a fun gun and that is all they are good for (mine in nam was a pile of crab and that is when it did work, I do not think I once empty a clip of fully auto). 40 round clip, one is bound to have one go in but true craftmanship nothing beats a lever action where it all began along with a pre 64 model 70. db [/QUOTE]
