My wife and I have a couple of the older NA 73's they are fine. If they have had work done on them it depends more on quality of work than anything else. Her 73 in 38/357 is her favorite rifle.

The older Navy Arms '73s are typical Uberti.  There is no real "Good," "Bad," nor "indifferent" with them as their just Ubertis.  If you want them to play nice and share toys, they will need work.  Springs at a minimum.

 had Uberti 73 carbine .22lr which, although beat up when I purchased it, was reliable and accurate, I wished I'd kept it.
I now have a Uberti Yellow boy 66 carbine in .22 magnum, it is well made but the old style sights and my old eyes do not work well together, plus it weighs too much compared to my 9422.
I'm going to sell it but sadly I live in the UK.

I have one question about the gambling niche,

There are several online casinos that I have thought about playing at, and after reading some player reviews, both here on Casino Advisor and on other sites that I think about playing at these online casinos, there were a few people who wrote some not so good things about their experiences playing at them. Most of the people who have played, however, have mentioned and said all the good things for the most part about the casinos.

Anyway, I guess what I'm trying to get at is actually the best approach when you're trying to decide where and which online casinos you should play, and whether you should let the few bad things some people say about online casinos or casinos get in the way of your decision whether or not to play there. I recently read this article about Yukon gold casino, you can find it here - https://canadiancasinos-online.com/yukon-gold-casino , so I'd like to know what you think of the casino, and what you think of it all.

I have one. It's actually more authentic to the original (outside appearance) than a modern Uberti. It has the cleaning rod compartment in the stock, front sight is soldered on the barrel, wood is not the overboard red color, etc.

Aren't these the Miruko Winchesters with Turnbull finishes on them and priced up another 65%?

Well, Slamfire did specify SRC.  I don't recall seeing that configuration on the Navy Arms / Turnbull Mirokus.  (Or an any Miroku '73 now that I think about it?)

I know this is an old thread, but this is really intriguing. I am a suckered for authenticity. Is this rifle that Cliff is referring to an older Navy Arms? Are there eras of NA 73s that are like this and others that are less authentic? Wanting to know what to look for. I am looking at buying a brand new Uberti and having it slicked up (but no un-authentic parts added) out of the box- I'd rather avoid any issues that some of the older Ubertis can come with, but the better authenticity that Cliff refers to with his NA rifle is really appealing.

What I was referring to is older Uberti. I would rather have a new one action. I wish they would have some of those little features that are more authentic on the new ones. Newer guns action and running features are much better. Get a new Cimarron and have it slicked up.

Thanks Cliff- that was plan A and I'll stick with it. Going to get a Cimarron through Long Hunter's in Amarillo and have them slick it up before sending it on to me. Cannot even say how excited I am to get my first 73 soon- been wanting one for many years.
