Taylor's & Co 1866 Trapper .45 Colt 18" Brass Frame 10+1 550212

1866 Trapper

The Taylor's & Co 1866 Trapper is a modern reproduction of the lever action rifle that followed the Henry and played a key role in the American West. This model features an 18-inch octagonal barrel chambered in .45 Colt along with the distinctive brass frame that gave the original its Yellowboy nickname. It incorporates the loading gate and separate magazine tube that improved reloading speed and shooter friendliness compared to earlier designs.

The rifle includes a walnut stock and forend with a blued steel barrel, brass frame, and casehardened steel triggerguard. Adjustable dovetail blade front and buckhorn rear sights provide clear aiming points, while the traditional firing pin and single trigger support consistent operation. Weighing 7.39 pounds with an overall length of 36.87 inches, the right-hand configuration remains compact yet capable.

This 1866 Trapper works well for collectors who value historical lever action authenticity and for shooters participating in cowboy action events or general range use. The tubular magazine delivers a 10+1 capacity that supports multiple shots without frequent reloading. Quality construction ensures reliable performance whether used for recreational shooting or as a display piece.
