Design and key features

The UBERTI 1873 CATTLEMAN II BRASS preserves the single-action ergonomics that made the original SAA iconic. It holds six rounds in the cylinder and uses a spring-loaded cylinder-pin retainer for easier takedown and maintenance. A retractable firing pin enhances safety by not locking into the firing position until the trigger is pulled—important for both range sessions and display handling. At a listed price of $599.99, this revolver offers period styling with user-friendly serviceability.

Materials and fit

Case-hardened frame surfaces paired with brass guard and backstrap give the revolver authentic visual contrast while walnut grips complete the classic profile. The 4.75-inch blued barrel balances sight radius for precision with practical carry length for field use or range transport.

Ballistics and practical use of .357 Magnum

The .357 Magnum chambering provides broad versatility. It’s capable of higher velocity and energy than many handgun calibers in a similar package, making it suitable for precision target work, hunting small to medium game, and defensive roles where penetration and terminal effect matter. Many shooters appreciate the option to step down to lighter practice loads when working on fundamentals or managing recoil during extended sessions. View product details and pricing

Maintenance, safety, and collector appeal

The spring-loaded cylinder-pin retainer simplifies routine cleaning and cylinder removal, while the retractable firing pin addresses safe carry and storage philosophies for single-action platforms. Historically informed finishes and the “Peacemaker” lineage make this model attractive to collectors, yet the practical features keep it fully functional for modern shooters.

For shooters seeking a historically styled revolver with practical safety and maintenance features, UBERTI 1873 CATTLEMAN II BRASS represents a balanced option at $599.99.
