I love it. I’ve had lots of lever guns but never a 73. That would make an IDEAL home defense gun. Damn, I want one. So many guns, so little money. Your getting pretty good at slinging lead with that son, I sure wouldn’t want to brace you. Great video sir.
If i could work the action like you can it wouldn’t bother me to grab that Levergun for home defense. Your as fast with it as most semiauto pistol’s brother. Congratulations I knew you could do it. See you on the next brother be safe and GOD BLESS y’all Amen 🙏
Hey, that was great fun to watch! Funny that we both posted hotrod rifles today. One of these days when we can get together, we'll have to run the Lightning and short stroke '73 against each other. That would be a blast!
Nice video. My favorite lever gun for home defense is Rossi 92 357 mag 16” with Remington 125 grain semi jacketed hollow point. 32 wcf is a nice choice too. I like 32 wcf with 115 grain swc bullets.
I picked the 45-110 because I figured it would work in the 1886 110 length action, not realizing that the Quigley rifle was 45-110 so cases would be available. Thanks for the like.
“Lever” you have given us a lot of food for thought here; both about the rifle and the cartridge. To address the 32-20 first thats entirely sufficient penetration and stopping power for home defense especially for an apartment situation. You can’t really show recoil but it must be more controllable than a .410. The next issue is the action of the gun itself: you have to ask yourself if the 92 action strong as it is, is it really THAT much BETTER…can you make it perform like the 73??? Thanks for a very informative demonstration!!
That’s what I compete against in CAS with my stock R92 45 Colt. Personally, I think people using guns with these kits should have their own category. It’s a total gamer move. But for defense, you def want every edge you can get!
Great video, 32-20 is an awesome little cartridge I wish it was more popular so costs would come down. I'm really curious what powder you're pushing those berry's hollowpoints that fast with...
Great video demonstrating the performance of the short throw action on the 1873. You have me now considering an 1873 carbine in lieu of waiting, waiting, waiting for a new Ruger manufactured Marlin 1894 in 357 magnum. What brand 1873 were you shooting in this video?
You have to have the best informative rifle and ammo channel on TH-cam that I have watched. Great content and information. Keep up the great videos and content.
Saw a original 73 at a gun dealer last week but they wonted 4000 dollars for it out of my price range but the 92 in25.20 for 2oo I think I will get hi from Australia
Your winning me over to the 32, seems like you told us before you took a deer with it. Did those parts go in without fitting? Sure made that 73 a slick shooter. Thanks
Howdy Again, Lever. So sorry but this video demo has really got me thinking…hopefully some others might chime in just to beat me up..first off I haven’t seen a ‘92 slicked up for competition…why is that??
You always amaze me. Good shooting super fast! How does that kit work? We have 4 of these rifles, and knowing how they work inside, I don't see how this would be possible.
The standard short stroke doesn’t really require fitting or anything, The super short stroke it does require some filing on the lifter bar, but they gave really good detailed instructions, basically, the toggle links are just a little bit different so they caused the action to move faster for less stroke, they have a maid for the Italian copies and also for the Winchester brand copies
Jeremy, can the .32-20 made to be roughly equivalent to .32 H&R magnum if hand-loaded properly? Would be real cool if Uberti or Miroku-Winchester made a '73 in .327 Fed mag, as it's near identical pressures to the .357mag and the '73 runs those. But obviously the .32 cal stuff isn't anywhere near as popular or available as .38 Special or .357mag.
@@Leverguns50 According to Cartridges of the World, the .32-20 is rated 85gr @ 1100 fps and 115gr @ 900 fps. Now that you put it that way, I'm sure those loads are very mild, meant to deal with old metal. Hodgdon reloading data on 32 H&R magnum 100gr bullet from 5-inch barrel runs a max of about 1200 fps with Lil'gun (19,900 cup).
the 92 is a much stronger action, in order for the 73 to handle any kind of pressure, the action needs to be tight and long enough to compress the cartridge into the chamber hard, so that there’s no movement before the cartridge expands against the chamber walls, an oily chamber could really damage is 73, then on the other hand the 92 is a very strong action is capable of up to 65,000 psi, cartridges depending on the year it was made ones made before 1930 should not be driven to hard as metal is softer, I believe the new ones are capable of handling the 454 and it’s 65,000 psi
@@Leverguns50 thanks for getting back to me! I really appreciate the information and love your videos. Would really like to talk to you more about these guns and their capabilities one of these days. You’re a wealth of information.
Look up Paco Kelly's .32-20 article. He goes all through strength levels on numerous rifles and revolvers. The original '73s are fairly weak, and the older '92s with the softer steel can set back the lugs with loads the newer ones can shoot all day. One of the importers making a repro '73 has made them much stronger, due to not only the metallurgy but a redesign of the lockwork.
It was also just roast over the fire and the skin just peels off. Beaver meat is very tasty and the tail of course is oily. But not a lot of flavor. Now I personally think the appeal is strictly a natural need for fats to counter act the lean diet. Love elk , moose deer, and buffalo and such but this craving after a bit more for fatty stuff will kinda take over. Certain dietary stuff available will fill that in things other than just 🦫 tail example horse milk from a mare who's foal is being weined off mom can make a great source, and delicious. Bone marrow from a bone roasted in the fire . And of course when close home I would add lots of pork and bacon to my diet Mountain man
OK not sure how this comment made it here cause I was watching buckskin Dave Marilla skinning beaver tail and wondering what it taste like . But it's all true. Guess you now know how bad my eyes are

Those riot guns are a blast

if someone only could have a lever action rifle for home defense, this would be the one to pick.

1892 is a good gun for sure
I have always wanted a 73 good video

I wish in the future Ruger would make marlin in a 32 caliber and a 38-55 man Winchester got a nice 38-55 and a 30-30 win deluxe
