Taylor's & Company 1873 Cattleman Gunfighter
The Model 1873 Cattleman represents the gold standard in single-action revolvers—a timeless design that has proven itself in both competition and sport shooting for generations.
Design & Construction
This revolver is built on a forged steel frame rather than cast construction. Forging creates superior grain structure and strength, resulting in a firearm that handles the rigors of competitive shooting and regular use with equal aplomb. The engineering is straightforward and honest—no unnecessary complications, just solid mechanical principles applied with care.
The Gunfighter Advantage
Taylor's & Company recognized that shooters with larger hands needed a revolver that fit their grip naturally. The Gunfighter model features the 1860 Army grip—a larger, more comfortable profile that allows shooters to achieve a proper purchase on the firearm. This translates directly to better control and faster, more accurate shooting.
