So, in game the Lancaster Repeater was based on Winchester Model 1866 "Yellow Boy", named so for its bronze/brass alloy receiver.

Customizing the gun at the gunsmith in-game to give it an iron frame makes the rifle look like a Winchester Model 1873.

In 1899, John Marston can be seen with a unique version that is iron-plated and has a Rosewood varnish. It is often strapped over his left shoulder, and he can be seen using it in combat at various times. However, the weapon is omitted from his inventory when he is playable, except during the mission "Jim Milton Rides, Again?". The customization appears to be a nod to the Winchester Repeater from Red Dead Redemption, where John was the protagonist.

Besides the shape of the butt plate LIM's looks quite close to the 1866, apart from the receiver colour.


It's ironic because the M1899 is a special custom version, but in gold rather than iron. I'm going to be tempted to repaint both back to their regular colours.


LIM goes the extra mile in capturing accurate details, because they have a real passion for the source, so it's a shame that the game models veered away from reality. Though if it weren't for the games we wouldn't be getting the figures at all.


EDIT:

For some reason it was impossible to upload Fireclawjack's photo of the full Lancaster. I tried saving it in different ways, and even uploaded it to Flickr and downloaded it from there, but this site doesn't like it.

The only way it worked was sharing directly from Flickr.

I reckon so.
