The Cimarron Cim Uberti 1866 Yellow Boy Short is a lever-action rifle chambered in .45 Colt. It has a 20″ barrel and a capacity of 10 rounds.

Originally known as the Improved Henry due to its patented loading gate on the side of the frame designed by Nelson King Winchester’s plant superintendant and the addition of a wood forearm the 1866 model was known as the Yellow Boy by the Native Americans because of its brass frame. The ’66 model was the first true cowboy lever-action and the first that adapted well to carrying in a saddle scabbard due to its slab sided design. With over 170000 made between 1866-1898–it’s popularity continued long after more powerful lever guns were introduced.
