The Pietta Gwii Californian 357 Mag revolver is a modern take on the classic single-action sixgun, built for shooters who want authentic period styling paired with reliable, contemporary manufacturing. This 5.5" model combines traditional aesthetics—casehardened frame, walnut grips, floating firing pin in the hammer—with drop-forged and CNC-machined steel construction that cuts through the romanticism and delivers real durability. Whether you're a Cowboy Action shooter, collector, or someone who simply appreciates a genuine revolver that handles 357 Magnum, this Californian is engineered to work hard without cutting corners on craft.
The Pietta's sighting system puts you ahead of the original: wider rear sight and larger front sight blade mean faster target acquisition in the field or on the range. The hammer-forged barrel and drop-forged frame are purpose-built for consistent accuracy and longevity. That combination of traditional lines and modern metallurgy is what makes this revolver stand out—it doesn't just look like a working gun, it actually is one.
Shooters choosing the Gwii Californian tend to value reliability and simplicity. No frills, no electronics, just a well-finished single-action revolver in .357 Magnum that won't let you down whether you're competing, hunting, or just spending time at the range.

This model comes with walnut grips that provide classic aesthetics and secure handling.
