There's a reason the 1873 single action pattern never went out of style, and the Ranch Hand from Taylors & Company is a great example of why. Built on the proven Cattleman forged steel frame and imported from Uberti's shop in Italy, this .45 Colt six-shooter pairs a color case hardened frame with a polished brass backstrap and trigger guard. Set against the blued 4.75 inch round barrel and blued cylinder, the mix of colors gives it that classic frontier look that photos never quite do justice.
The forged frame is the big deal here. Forging gives the steel a tighter grain structure than casting, which means this revolver holds up to steady use, whether that's weekend range trips or a full season of cowboy action matches. The action is traditional single action with an exposed hammer, blade front sight, and notch rear, so the manual of arms is exactly what you'd expect from a Peacemaker-style gun. Cock the hammer, press the trigger, repeat. Simple and satisfying every time.
One detail worth calling out is the Navy-size walnut grip. It's a touch slimmer than the standard Army grip found on most 1873 reproductions, and plenty of folks find it settles into the hand better, especially with the roll of .45 Colt recoil. The 4.75 inch barrel length keeps the whole package quick out of a holster and well balanced at the muzzle, which is exactly why this length was so popular back in the day.
Upkeep is straightforward. The blued and case hardened steel takes the same care as any traditional revolver, and a little metal polish keeps the brass grip frame gleaming. Feed it standard .45 Colt loads and it'll reward you with the kind of shooting experience that made this design a legend. Whether you're getting into cowboy action, adding to a western collection, or just want a six-gun that feels right, this one delivers.
The Ranch Hand is manufactured by Uberti in Italy and imported by Taylors & Company. Uberti has built its reputation on faithful, well-fitted reproductions of classic American single actions, and this one is built on their proven 1873 Cattleman forged frame.
Yes, it's a natural fit. The forged frame is built to handle the volume of shooting that comes with regular match use, and the traditional single action lockwork, 4.75 inch barrel, and .45 Colt chambering are all staples of the sport. Many competitors run this exact platform.
The Navy-size walnut grip on the Ranch Hand is slightly smaller and slimmer than the Army-style grip found on many 1873 reproductions. A lot of people find it fits medium and smaller hands better and helps manage the roll of .45 Colt recoil. If you've felt other Cattleman variants were a bit bulky in the palm, this grip is worth a try.
Brass will develop a patina over time with handling, which some owners like for the aged look. If you prefer it bright, an occasional pass with a metal polish like Flitz brings the shine right back. The blued and case hardened steel just needs standard cleaning and a light coat of oil after shooting.
