UBERTI 1866 CARBINE CHAMBERED FOR .22 LONG RIFLE AMMUNITION. The 1866 model played a prominent part in the winning of the West. The 1866 model or ?Yellowboy,? as it was famously known because of its shiny brass frame, was the successor to the Henry rifle. Production began in 1866 and continued through 1898, a period when both rifles and carbines were introduced. The 1866 carbine and rifle are still popular lever action models with shooters today.
