New member here from cold and snowy western Illinois. My father bought me my first rifle when I was 11 years old. It was a Winchester Model 1873 in 44WCF for the pricely sum of $40 in 1956, and was bought from a Chicago gun shop. So I've been into Winchesters ever since and look forward to participating in the forum.

Welcome mag318!

The 73 is in line as a favorite of mine. Still have sellers remorse for selling mine many years past. Like the .44 round too.
