Uberti 345129 1873 Cattleman Stainless SS NM .45 Colt 7.5" Bbl 6rd Revolver

The Colt Single Action Army revolver, also known as the "Peacemaker," was one of the most iconic firearms of the American Old West and remains a popular collector's item today. In July of 1873, the U.S. Army adopted it as its standard issue sidearm, replacing the older Model 1860 percussion-cap revolvers. The Single Action Army's reputation quickly grew as a formidable weapon, favored by soldiers for its stopping power, accuracy, and easy-to-maintain design.

The revolver's popularity extended beyond the military and into civilian life, with many lawmen and outlaws alike recognizing its superior design. It became a staple of the Wild West, with famous gunfighters such as Wyatt Earp and Wild Bill Hickok carrying them. Even after the Wild West was tamed, the Single Action Army's legacy continued, with its use by Theodore Roosevelt and his Rough Riders during their charge up San Juan Hill, and General George S. Patton during World War II.

Today, Uberti continues to honor the legacy of the Colt Single Action Army with its line of 1873 Cattleman Revolvers. These pistols are authentic reproductions of the originals, down to the last detail, and allow modern-day enthusiasts to experience the look, feel, and performance of the legendary revolver. The Uberti revolvers are not only popular among collectors and history enthusiasts but also used in cowboy action shooting competitions, where participants dress up in period costumes and compete using period-accurate firearms. Overall, the Colt Single Action Army revolver and its reproductions by Uberti remain an enduring symbol of the Wild West and the American frontier.
