Design & Functionality

The case-hardened frame provides authentic aesthetics while maintaining durability. The low, wide hammer design facilitates smooth, controlled cocking and reduces fatigue during extended shooting sessions. The transfer bar safety is a modern safety feature that prevents the firing pin from contacting the primer unless the trigger is fully pressed—a critical addition to traditional single action designs.

The grey polymer grip offers a secure, non-slip surface and resists weather and UV damage better than traditional materials.

Ideal For

This revolver suits cowboy action shooting, historical reenactment, hunting, and sport shooting. Its moderate barrel length balances accuracy with practical handling.
