Owners of the Cimarron 1873 Deluxe in 32-20 WCF are typically drawn to it for cowboy action shooting or as a period-correct display and range piece. The 32-20 WCF chambering is a point of enthusiasm for those who load their own ammunition, as factory ammo availability is more limited than common pistol calibers.

The walnut stock and overall fit and finish draw positive comments from buyers looking at the 1873 as a craft piece, though some note that quality control on the wood-to-metal fit can vary from example to example. The 20-inch barrel handles well and balances the rifle for quick lever work.

Shooting experience on the 1873 Deluxe is generally relaxed given the mild recoil of the 32-20 WCF. Buyers who want a more traditional western experience tend to be happy; those hoping for a modern utility rifle sometimes find the caliber and capacity limiting for their purposes.
