The classic Single Action Army silhouette remains one of the most enduring designs in American firearms history. Practical on the range and attractive in a display, a faithful reproduction that balances authentic details with user-focused safety makes the difference for shooters who want period-correct handling without modern compromises.

UBERTI 1873 CATTLEMAN II is a modern reproduction of Colt’s famous Single Action Army (SAA). This Cattleman features a polished nickel-plated finish, walnut grips, a 4.75-inch barrel and is chambered in .45 Long Colt. The six-shot cylinder with a spring-loaded cylinder-pin retainer speeds maintenance, while a retractable firing pin adds a layer of safety by remaining disengaged until the trigger is pulled.

Design and safety features

The UBERTI 1873 CATTLEMAN II retains the SAA’s traditional single-action operation while integrating safety-minded updates. The retractable firing pin prevents the pin from locking forward until the trigger is pulled, reducing the chance of an accidental discharge from impact. The spring-loaded cylinder-pin retainer simplifies disassembly and cleaning—an advantage for users who run frequent maintenance at the range or warehouse.

Caliber and performance

Chambered in .45 Long Colt, this revolver delivers the classic balance of manageable recoil and effective stopping power in a frontier-style package. The 4.75-inch barrel offers a practical compromise between sight radius and carryability, making it accurate at typical pistol ranges while remaining comfortable to shoot during extended sessions. For collectors and shooters seeking period-correct ballistics, .45 Long Colt remains a versatile choice.
