This video from Brownells showcases the historical Evans Repeating Rifle, a lever-action firearm invented by Dr. Warren Evans. It highlights the rifle's unique 34-round helical tubular magazine, which runs through the buttstock, and its proprietary .44 Evans cartridge. The rifle, produced between 1873 and 1879, was initially aimed at the military but found its niche in the hunting market. The description notes its appearance in films like "Tombstone" and the video game "Red Dead Redemption." The featured example is in near-pristine condition, displaying vivid case-hardening.
This video provides an in-depth examination of the Evans Repeating Rifle, a firearm manufactured in Maine between 1873 and 1879. The presenter details three distinct models: the Old Model (lacking a wooden lower buttstock), the Transitional Model (two-piece wooden buttstock but no dust cover), and the New Model (featuring a two-piece wooden buttstock and an ejection port cover that moves with the operating lever). The video aims to educate viewers on identifying these variations.
