At first glance, this rifle appears to be a traditional cowboy-era firearm, and it is. But under the hood, it brings modern utility, thoughtful upgrades, and remarkable craftsmanship\u2014all while remaining 100% American-made.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had the opportunity to shoot one of the very first production models of the TC73 and found it to be both historically authentic and functionally impressive.

Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company has revived that concept for the modern era by chambering the TC73 in 9mm, the most widely used handgun cartridge in the United States today. This makes logistical sense for today\u2019s shooters, particularly those who already stockpile 9mm for carry pistols, home defense, or training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Taylor's &amp; Company 1873 TC73 full rifle\" class=\"wp-image-214931\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01007.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The TC73 is a beautiful and accurate replica of the classic 1873 Winchester, the rifle sometimes referred to as &#8220;the gun that won the west!&#8221;<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The rifle holds 10 rounds in a tubular magazine and feeds through a traditional side-loading gate.

Every component is machined from premium steel, and Taylor\u2019s in-house gunsmiths tune the final assembly. The result is an action that is incredibly smooth\u2014what they call \u201cTaylor Tuned\u201d\u2014and a crisp trigger that measured around three pounds on my sample.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Taylor's &amp; Company 1873 TC73 reciever\" class=\"wp-image-214934\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01014.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The TC73 features the traditional lever lock. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The receiver features genuine <a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/a-way-to-color-case-harden-at-home\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"taylors-company-1873-tc73-review-9mm-lever-action\" title=\"Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company TC73 \u2013 9mm 1873 Lever Gun w\/Video\"  data-wpil-monitor-id=\"731\">case color hardening<\/a>, not a simulated finish.

The results were telling:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Revolver (5.5&#8243;)<\/strong>: Avg. ~1165 fps<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Rifle (18&#8243;)<\/strong>: Avg. ~1360 fps<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s a ~200 fps bump in velocity\u2014enough to enhance terminal performance while remaining extremely manageable in terms of recoil. Even with hotter +P loads, the rifle remained smooth and pleasant to shoot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-yoast-seo-related-links yoast-seo-related-links\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/taylors-alaskan-takedown-a-guide-gun-with-wild-west-roots-shot-show-2014\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"taylors-company-1873-tc73-review-9mm-lever-action\" title=\"Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company TC73 \u2013 9mm 1873 Lever Gun w\/Video\">Taylors Alaskan Takedown: A Guide Gun with Wild West Roots\u2014SHOT Show 2014<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/taylors-company-gunfighter-nickel-revolver-to-lineup\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"taylors-company-1873-tc73-review-9mm-lever-action\" title=\"Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company TC73 \u2013 9mm 1873 Lever Gun w\/Video\">Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company Adds Nickel Revolver to Gunfighter Lineup<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/taylors-ridge-runner-and-smoke-wagon-shot-show-2016\/\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"taylors-company-1873-tc73-review-9mm-lever-action\" title=\"Taylor\u2019s &amp; Company TC73 \u2013 9mm 1873 Lever Gun w\/Video\">Taylor&#8217;s Tacticool .45-70 Levergun and New SAAs &#8211; SHOT Show 2016<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Legal Considerations and Practical Utility<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the more underrated features of the TC73 is its compliance. As a manually operated rifle with no detachable magazine and no &#8220;modern sporting rifle&#8221; features, this gun is legal in all 50 states\u2014including jurisdictions that severely restrict semi-automatic firearms. That makes it an appealing option for shooters in restrictive states who still want a capable, effective, and attractive rifle for home defense, ranch work, or range use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite its antique looks, this rifle is not a safe queen. It\u2019s highly shootable, extremely practical, and likely to turn heads at any range. It\u2019s also an excellent choice for newer shooters who may be recoil-sensitive or want to simplify logistics by sticking to one caliber.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Matching Sidearm<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Taylor's &amp; Company 1873 TC73 &amp; TC9 on a saddle\" class=\"wp-image-214927\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC00969.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The Taylors &amp; Co TC73 and TC-9 make a great 50 state legal pair. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Although the focus of my review is the rifle, it\u2019s worth mentioning the companion revolver Taylor\u2019s offers\u2014a 9mm-chambered 1873 Single Action Army clone.

It\u2019s a highly functional, well-built, American-made rifle that brings the timeless design of the 1873 Winchester into the modern era. By chambering it in 9mm and adding thoughtful features like a threaded barrel and tuned action, Taylor\u2019s has created something that\u2019s both historically respectful and thoroughly modern.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Taylor's &amp; Company 1873 TC73 laying on a saddle.\" class=\"wp-image-214930\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002-400x225.jpg 400w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/DSC01002.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">If you really want to dig deep there&#8217;s a movie starring James Stewart titled the &#8220;Winchester &#8217;73&#8221; that has some great shooting in it. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>At an MSRP  $1,999, it\u2019s not an entry-level lever gun\u2014but it\u2019s priced fairly for what you\u2019re getting.
