Thank you for your interest in the most famous rifle in the history of television westerns. Chuck Connors used a combination of authentic Winchester '92 rifles and a Spanish copy of the Winchester, called the El Tigre, during production of the series. This legendary rifle has become an icon of old western strength and honesty, and is now desired by many who remember those times.

This rifle will soon be available to the public, (see photos below). Each rifle replica that I create is exactly like the original one used by Chuck Connors on The Rifleman. Original Winchesters are getting very hard to find now, so just like Chuck Connors used the Winchester copy, the El Tigre, I use a European Winchester copy in the production of my Rifleman's Rifles.

Since the jigs were developed from one of the original rifles used on the show, I am able to duplicate every feature, right down to the set screw for rapid fire. The rifles I have used are either authentic original Winchester model 1892 Saddle Ring Carbines in 44-40 caliber, or the more moderately priced European Winchester copies.

FAQ on our Rifles:

How much does it cost to own a Rifleman's rifle? The rifles I produce are made from Winchester copies from Europe, and are priced at $1,995 (plus shipping and handling). Every detail of Lucas McCain's rifle is meticulously duplicated, and this is a fully operational rifle, just like Lucas McCain owned!

How long do the rifles take to make? Previously these rifles were coming from my private collection, and were available almost immediately. However, I have been stunned by the interest in the Rifleman's rifle and the few rifles I had available have now all gone to Rifleman fans! I am currently in the process of reworking additional rifles, and these should be available soon!

Can I add my name to a waiting list for rifles? We were taking names on a waiting list, but have quite a few names and have closed the waiting list for now. Once we get closer, we will contact each of you on the list.

Can I just order the lever and fit it myself? I don't offer this service currently. However, if I get enough requests for this, it may be offered in the future!

Do you ship the rifle directly to me? Since this is a firearm transaction, all rifles must be sent to a registered FFL Dealer. You can find these at many gun stores, sporting stores and pawn shops that deal in guns.

What are the shipping costs? I send the rifles by either Overnight or Second Day Air (depending on your location), so I avoid bumping around in an onroad truck! The shipping and handling fee is approximately $85 and this is not included in the rifle cost.

I'd really like to continue and find out more about obtaining a replica rifle, how do I do that? The first you can do is add your name to our waiting list HERE! Once I start producing these replicas in a few weeks, I will call you and we can talk about rifles!

What if I want an original authentic Winchester? Winchester '92 rifles today in good condition are very costly and becoming harder to obtain. The rifles I custom build may have any degree of finish ware, from looking new unfired to looking like a well used Westerner’s tool. The Flip Special Rifleman rifles I make are dependent upon my being able to locate and purchase the necessary original Winchester carbines. My premium rifles are made from authentic antique Winchesters and are priced from $3,500. Pricing varies on the availability and condition of the original Winchester. These are a very limited rifle, and if you are interested in 'the real deal', then I will work with you one on one to find you an original Winchester and have it modifed to a Rifleman's Rifle. You may contact me HERE and let me know you are looking for an original Winchester. Please read my article on what to look for when purchasing a genuine Winchester, HERE.
