Pedersoli Lightning Premium

A reproduction of one of the most famous rifles used during the 1890's by cowboys and settlers of the American West and today very desired by Cowboy Action Shooters, hunters and collectors. To the original American model, we made important modifications to the mechanical parts to make the rifle more safe and reliable. With great care, we retained the fascination, beauty and appearance of the original rifle while at the same time making subtle changes to design out the weaknesses of the original and give today's shooters an accurate and reliable rifle. Available in the Rifle version, with octagonal barrel and the Carbine with round barrel. In the Carbine version with 20" round barrel, the magazine is retained on the barrel by a shaped double ring band. Both Rifle and Carbine are offered with three different finishes: Standard: blue action and furniture, walnut stock; Premium: case hardened action, semi-fancy walnut checkered stock; Deluxe: old silver colour for the action and the trigger guard, finished by hand engraving, fancy walnut stock, fine checkering. Both the Rifle and the Carbine versions feature a checkered forend.
