In God WE Trust
If the 1873 action had been successful, and strong enough, we would never have seen the 1892 and then 1894 Winchesters. The '73 action was pretty much the same as the famous 1866 "Golden Boy" except it had a steel receiver, and was really only suited to hand gun sized rounds. Strangely enough Colt released the 44-40 pistol because Winchester wouldn't release the '73 in .45 Colt.
As to your original question, sorry, I don't know.
thanks....I saw thaqt one on gb...THanks for the insight
