What's the quality like on these? Where are they made? Anyone seen their 1860 Henry?

Might have answered my own question. These are Ubertis?

I think Ubertis are fairly highly regarded. Aren't they owned by Beretta?
I heard Beretta is the oldest manufacturing company in the world. Of course, there might be a few Chinese firms that might have something to say about that....

I actually started a Uberti topic so most of the answers are there. It looks like Cimmarons are the same rifle. Thks.

I don't personally own any Uberti's, but there are a few I'd certainly LIKE to get my grimy mitts on.

They are not only of the highest quality but they look like a million dollars.

I've never owned or shot a Henry . But in lever guns I had many Rossi and Marlin shooting them in SASS matches . I found that bottle neck cartridge 30-30 , 32-20 and 44-40 run best in them because in chambering the brass must runs up the ramp into a funnel like chamber and don't bind in chambering . On straight wall case like 357 , 44 mag or 45 Colt the 66 and 73 rifles are king because they use a elevator to lift the cartridge in perfect alignment with chamber before push it in . NO binding and makes for a super smooth chamber . There is tons aftermarket part for the 66 and 73 making into the perfect race gun . This is the 1st only target I ever shot at 50 yds on paper since I only shoot it on steel targets .
