Availability: In Stock
The Taylors & Company 1873 Cattleman .45LC/.45ACP revolver is a faithful reproduction of one of the most iconic handguns in American shooting history. Built on the New Model frame and available in both .45 Long Colt and .45 ACP, this 5.5-inch barrel revolver delivers the look, feel, and reliability that make it equally at home on the range, in the field, or at a Cowboy Action Shooting match. Whether you're a history enthusiast, a serious competitor, or someone who simply appreciates classic single-action design, the 1873 Cattleman rewards shooters who take the time to master its deliberate, honest mechanics.
Taylors & Company builds this model with period-correct aesthetics and modern manufacturing standards. The 5.5-inch barrel provides a balance of sight radius and practical carry length, while the case-hardened steel frame—finished in the warm, mottled colors that define the New Model look—pairs with a deep blue barrel for a gun that looks as good in hand as it shoots. The walnut grip is comfortable during extended sessions and adds a touch of classic craftsmanship that plastic can't replicate. At 2.30 lbs and 11 inches overall, it's light enough for all-day wear yet substantial enough to feel like a real tool, not a toy.
The dual-caliber capability gives you shooting flexibility without buying a second gun. Load .45 ACP with moon clips for faster reloads at the range, or carry .45 Long Colt ammunition for hunting or sport shooting. The simple blade front sight is a no-nonsense design that rewards deliberate aim and pairs well with the standard notch rear. This is not a gun for flinching or spray-and-pray—it's for shooters who understand that accuracy comes from technique, not gadgetry.
