Sure is a different description from mine when describing my Henry SGC, which is "smooth-as-butter." ;)
But your slick expression works! BTW, more pics would be welcome.

Sharp-looking 1873. Uberti T&C does put out some fine-looking firearms; and good shooting by you, too!
Enjoy.

Have one with an 18 inch full octagon and really like it. Nice shooting and gun.

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

Very nice! I have one in .45 Colt and it is a joy to sit back with a box of bullets and plink the day away!

That's a beauty! Thanks for sharing! Need a closer pic of the half-n-half barrel. Sounds cool!

Mine transitions from Octagon to Round just a smidge beyond the end of the forearm. Not that hard to tell if you zoom in on the CCH 1873 at the end of the forearm.
