Is adding "Model" really neccessary? I always skip that because it makes the name even longer. With all the Winchester rifles, I just say "Winchester 1886 'Yellow Boy'", "Winchester 1873", "Winchester 1892". I'll continue to skip the Model part, but I guess now it matches all the other Winchester page titles.

That's the reason I moved it. It fits into the naming nomenclature for all the Winchester YEARS. If someone wants to scan and look for a certain year, eliminating the word MODEL pops the 1866 to the top of the list, out of chronological order. You can continue to list it just as the 1866 or Yellowboy on all of the movie/TV attribution pages, but the primary gun page should following the naming nomenclature for all the Winchester Model firearms.

The Winchester from "Did You Hear About the Morgans" is not a Winchester 1866 "Yellow Boy". It is a gold plated 92 or 94 Commemorative model. I have not found a match yet though it has stars around the receiver similar to the "Lonestar Commemorative" but the medallion in the stock is different (See promotional photo of Sarah Jessica Parker with the rifle)
