What is the Difference between a Uberti .45 Colt 1873 Made in the 90's, and a Uberti Winchester currently .45 Colt made currently?

Is one better than the other?

Well,

I took a Leep, and removed the Action, two screws on the Left.
Tight fit but was able to remove it.
Seems the "Bridle Screw" had worked itself loose enough to Block the Hammer.
Tightened...

The Breechblock works as normal, It fall easily.
The Triggers work, set the Back, then the front click, as Normal?

Thx,

The Hammer does not move at all, in the Down position.
Trying to figure what screws to remove to see what is broken/not correct inside?

Thx for all your help
