I’ve been looking for an 1866 Yellowboy rifle in .44-40 and have a chance to buy a new one at a fair price. It’s a Cimarron by trade name, but as far as I know Uberti makes these rifles and they are marketed under the various names of Uberti themselves, Cimarron, Taylors & Co, and perhaps others as well. So as far as I can tell, despite the fact that they all claim their rifle is better than the others - it doesn’t really make any difference if it’s called a Cimarron, a Taylors & Co, or s Uberti – it’s exactly the same rifle but just packaged in a different box.
Is that correct or am I missing something here?
If there IS any difference – without bad mouthing any of them – does anybody have an opinion as to which one might be superior in any way ….. and why?
