UBERTI 1873 CATTLEMAN II

This reproduction of Colt’s famed Single Action Army was developed for the U.S. Army and later earned the “Peacemaker” nickname among lawmen and outlaws. The Uberti model reproduces the aesthetics and function of the original while adding modern touches: a 6-shot cylinder, spring-loaded cylinder-pin retainer for simplified takedown, and a retractable firing pin that doesn’t lock into the firing position until the trigger is pulled. The model here features a stainless steel finish with polished walnut grips, a 5.5-inch barrel, and is chambered in .45 Long Colt. Priced at $829.99, it’s positioned as an affordable, authentic-feeling option for collectors and shooters. Shop this product
