Just found this video, I have a 1973 Navy Arms, "Uberti" (exactly) as yours is. Mine is a very nice shooter and very accurate at 50 yards. Mine is also chambered in .38 special. It's a fun gun for plinking.
I know what you went through over the loss of a friend. I lost two brothers within an 8 months period. It's difficult in many ways. Life is hard but livable. We can make it. Each day I thank God for one more day. HAve a great weekend buddy.
Mike Richards . Mr RichardsThank You Mike, I had a pretty good season. I got a nice 7 point buck and 4 hogs. I hope You had a good season as well. Thank You very much for watching My Video, and for Your kind and thoughtful comments.I am sad to hear of Your loss too, its very sad to hear. Especially Your Brothers God Bless You.
I wish I had bought that rifle, it was an absolute pleasure to shoot and very handy to carry. It needed a new extractor, but was very easy to hit with. Thanks for watching Brother.
I have the same one in 38 sp. and am on my way to the range. Unlike the newer Ubertis it doesn't have the lock mounted on the lever. You have to squeeze it to engage the trigger.
@@RickNethery OMG..at the range I discovered that the extractor had broken. I ordered a replacement, am knee deep in a youtube video on how to replace it!
Hi Rick - those are smooth running rifles and hard to beat for fun shooting. I picked up a Winchester repro 1873 Short Rifle and had a great shoot - even hit at 200 yards with those iron sights. I had to lift the rear sight a couple of notches and it is still hard to see a milk jug at that range - but the bullets had eyes that day and it was one after another. Great video.
Win94ae Thanks, I only had a little ammo, but it would be fun to experiment with at longer range. This .38 is literally like shooting a big .22, very fun.
@@RickNethery gud afternoon sir I have a mauser model 1937 his r side where we push catrage with skipper clip there MAUSER WERKE A. G. OBERNDORF A /N these words type so please answer me this is kar98k? Thanks
LetFreedomPing Thank You, I looked up some information and found out this one was made by Umberti in Italy, then imported by Navy Arms. Thanks For watching. This Rifle would look awesome in a saddle scabbard. 😊
The 1866 is one of the most historically significant rifles in the 19th century. Going up against it caused the US to consider looking for a repeater to replace the Trapdoor and led Russia to replace the Berdan with the Mosin-Nagant. I have an Uberti in 45 LC and what you say about not short-shucking it is definitely the truth.
Milsurp Mike Thanks for watching Buddy, this Rifle is a lot of fun. It kind of takes You back. I can imagine that this was a game changer back when it came out. every once in a while if You don't fully close the lever, it will leave a round in the chamber, definitely have to be very deliberate with the lever. I love this rifle though. I backed off after the video and fired it from the top of the hill ringing the gong. It was cool. This will definately be a hard rifle to take back.
My first time watching your channel. Very nice review of a beautiful rifle (carbine?). You seems like one very fine "dude"! You impress me as possibly being a Born Again Christian in Jesus Christ & that you recently had a sad loss of a loved one!!! Whatever the case, I love ya & pray GOD will help heal your loss. Love your ACCENT too, a good ol' "southern boy"!! Would love to shoot with you some day & show ya what a lousy shot I is! I can't even hit the left eye out of a gnat at 1000yds offhand no how! Hang in dere good friend!!! Pardon me for being an ol' "northerner"! "Gesundheit"!!!
@@timsim1940 Thanks for subscribing, I am planning to make a video soon with a Japanese Arisaka type 38 sporter that was rechambered for the 6.5-257 wild cat cartridge. I finally spent the money on a set of custom dies. First shot will probably be fired with a string. LOL
GunPassion95 Thank You My Friend, I need to come up with something shorter for an intro. That old intro I had was too low a resolution to blend with my 1080P. I am glad You got a chance to watch this. God Bless You My Friend.
NCS Sounds Thanks, I tried adding music a few times. The choices RU-vid has available aren't that great, I got in trouble once for using Hank Williams JR, LOL I will check out Your sounds. Thanks for watching, and for the offer to help. I really appreciate it.
