The 1886 Wildlands is what happens when Chiappa takes John Browning's legendary big-bore action and builds it for the way people hunt today. Chambered in .45-70 Government with a 4+1 capacity, this takedown rifle splits into two compact halves, so it rides in a pack or behind a truck seat without complaint. At 8.8 pounds with a 36 inch overall length, it carries its weight where it counts and comes up on target fast in thick timber.
The 16.5 inch steel barrel comes threaded 5/8×24, so adding a suppressor or muzzle brake is a simple twist away. Up top, the angle-eject receiver wears a Picatinny rail, which means you can run a red dot, scout scope, or traditional glass without spent brass smacking your optic. The 1:18 twist stabilizes the heavy bullets .45-70 fans love, and the matte blued finish keeps things low-glare in the field.
Instead of walnut, the Wildlands wears a skeletonized black synthetic stock with an adjustable comb, letting you dial in a proper cheek weld whether you are shooting irons or a mounted optic. The aluminum M-LOK forend gives you honest mounting real estate for a light, bipod, or sling stud, and the oversized lever wrapped in paracord runs smooth with gloved hands. A paracord sling comes in the box, so it is ready to sling up from day one.
The .45-70 has been dropping big animals for a century and a half, and in a short, handy package like this it makes a superb choice for bear country, hog thickets, and dark-timber deer hunts. Between the takedown convenience, the threaded muzzle, and the accessory-ready furniture, this is a lever gun that respects tradition without being stuck in it. If your hunts take you deep into rough country, this one was built with you in mind.
Yes, this model (920.439) is the takedown version of the Wildlands 86. The rifle separates into two halves at the receiver, which makes it much easier to pack into remote hunting spots, stow in a backpack, or store in a compact case. Reassembly is quick and does not require tools.
The 16.5 inch barrel is threaded 5/8×24, which is the standard pattern for most .45-70 and .30 caliber and larger muzzle devices. That means common big-bore suppressors and brakes thread right on. A suppressed .45-70 lever gun is a genuinely pleasant thing to shoot, especially with heavier subsonic-friendly loads.
Absolutely. The receiver features angle ejection paired with a Picatinny rail on top, so spent cases kick out to the side instead of straight up into your optic. That setup handles red dots, scout scopes, and traditional riflescopes, and the adjustable comb on the stock lets you raise your cheek weld to match your optic height.
This rifle shines as a short, hard-hitting woods and brush gun. The .45-70 Government has plenty of authority for deer, hogs, black bear, and even larger game at practical distances, and the compact 36 inch overall length handles quickly in tight cover. The takedown feature also makes it a favorite for backcountry hunters and guides who need a packable big-bore.
