I recently got an uberti 1873 winchester carbine through an online auction. The price was very low and the rifle is in like new condition, not a scratch on it.
The only thing that bothered me when I got the rifle was the rear sight. It is not sitting completely level. Like so many lever actions that I see, the rear sight dovetail is canted slightly to the side. I know it is a common issue, but ubertis are so good in fit and finish that I wasn't expecting to see it on this rifle.
Anyone else notice this issue on an uberti 1873 that you have?
