Winchester, VA – Taylor’s & Company is proud to announce their TC73 9mm Lever Action rifle is now legal for cowboy action competition.
“We couldn’t be more pleased that the Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) has now deemed the TC73 is now a SASS legal rifle and can be used in certain SASS sanctioned categories,” said Keri McDonald, Sales & Marketing Director. “The Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) is an international membership organization, formed in 1987, that preserves and promotes the sport of Cowboy Action Shooting, fitting with our legacy of “Keeping The Legend Alive”.
The TC73 is legal in all competition categories unless specified otherwise (i.e., certain categories have specific firearm and caliber requirements). When using the TC73 Rifle in SASS, the rifle must have the optional smooth thread protector that matches the contours and finish of the barrel. (no checkering, knurling, or grooves) “View the smooth protector here”.
“The Single Action Shooting Society is thrilled to have the Taylor’s & Company’s ground-breaking 1873 9mm lever action rifle approved for the sport of Cowboy Action competition,” said Misty D. Ebersole, Chief Executive Officer, The Single Action Shooting Society, Inc. “SASS and Taylor’s have enjoyed a successful partnership for nearly 30 years, including honoring Taylor’s with a SASS Western Heritage Museum Hall of Fame Induction in 2007; paying homage to their dedication and contributions to our organization, our sport, our membership, and the firearm industry as a whole.
