I have 2 Uberti rifles, an 1876 .45-75 and an 1885 High Wall .45-70. (not to mention cap & ball revolvers)
Both rifles are well made, function smoothly & correctly, and are accurate.
The stock and forend on the 1885 High Wall are not quite "correct" but from 10' away one would not know.

That said, their "Courteney" rifle leaves me absolutely cold from the looks department. Dangling ball sack grip and picatinny rail may appeal to some, but I'm an unreformed traditionalist. At least it has a 24" barrel.
