The Taylors & Company 1873 Cattleman .357 Magnum 5.5" nickel revolver is a single-action that bridges Cowboy Action Shooting heritage with modern competition reliability. Built on a forged steel frame—not investment-cast—this gun gives you the structural integrity and grain density that stands up to heavy use and years in the field. If you're building a legitimate Peacemaker-pattern revolver for the range, Cowboy events, or just want a classic carry gun with proven mechanics, the Cattleman delivers the real deal.
The nickel finish paired with charcoal-blue screws splits the difference between period authenticity and weather resistance. Walnut grips feel right in the hand, and the simple blade front sight keeps you focused downrange without fuss. The New Model frame uses a plunger-style cylinder pin removal, making it faster to load and unload than older pin-and-spring designs. Six rounds of .357 Magnum—or .38 Special if you prefer softer recoil—gives you stopping power with flexibility.
At 5.5 inches, the barrel hits the sweet spot for Cowboy competition stages and hunting: fast enough out of the holster, accurate enough at practical distances, and balanced enough to shoot all day without fatigue. Weighing just 2.3 pounds, it won't wear you down on a trail or at a match. This is purpose-built iron for shooters who know what they want and don't have patience for marketing nonsense.

Yes. The Taylors & Company 1873 Cattleman is purpose-built for Cowboy Action Shooting competition. The forged frame and plunger-pin design are designed to handle the demands of match use, and the 5.5-inch barrel and .357 Magnum chambering fit standard SASS guidelines for many match categories.
Yes. Single-action Peacemaker-pattern revolvers chambered in .357 Magnum are fully compatible with .38 Special ammunition, giving you flexibility for lower-recoil practice or carry loads.
Forged frames are hammer-forged from solid steel, creating a denser grain structure that withstands higher stresses and is more resistant to fatigue. Cast frames are created by pouring molten metal into a mold, which can introduce voids and weaker grain patterns. For competition and heavy use, forged is the stronger, longer-lasting choice.
The Cattleman ships with walnut grip panels, period-correct in appearance and comfortable in extended shooting sessions.
