A Winchester Model 1873 was lever-action repeating rifle from the 1870s, and successor to the Winchester Model 1866, this weapon is used by various guest and host characters in Westworld, including Teddy Flood, Armistice, Deputy Foss and many others. Along with its older sibling, the Model 1866, it's one of the most ubiquitous historical rifles in the Westworld park.
Hector Escaton uses a customised version, the Winchester Model 1873 "Mare's Leg".
