Product Description
The 1873 peacemaker-style revolver, originally designed for the U.S.
Cavalry, quickly became the archetypical sixgun of the frontier. Made in
a number of powerful chamberings in different barrel lengths, besides
the "peacemaker," it was also known by other monikers like "hogleg,"
smokewagon," and "equalizer." In civilian hands, it quickly earned a
reputation as a rugged, hard-hitting, well balanced revolver and outsold
all competitors. Men like Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, John Selman, the
James-Younger gang, the Daltons, the Texas and later the Arizona
Rangers, all packed this legendary arm and did their smoky work with it.
With the coming of the Silver Screen, the Model P was reintroduced to
an entirely new generation of admirers. In the hands of such Western
stars as John Wayne, Roy Rogers, Hopalong Cassidy, Tom Selleck, Clint
Eastwood and countless others, this sixgun has earned lasting fame with
shooters and Old West fans alike! Considered as the most authentic and
highest quality reproduction of the 1873 Colt, Cimarron's replica was
reproduced in every detail from an original 1873 single action in our
antique collection, and was not replicated by working simply from
drawings, as with previous reproductions. We also took extra steps to
improve the gun's reliability with our Cowboy CompĀ® action which
eliminates weaknesses associated with the 19th century design. Offered
in the 7 1/2, 5 1/2, or 4 3/4-inch barrel lengths, in either the
pre-1896-style Old Model with the with the cylinder base pin screw
located in the front of the frame, or the post-1896 Pre-War frame, where
the cylinder base pin retaining screw is found on the side of the
frame, in front of the cylinder. It comes in .32-20, .38-40, .38
Special/.357 Magnum, .44 Special, .44-40, .45 Colt or .45 ACP/Colt with
