The Pietta Great Western II Liberty takes the time-honored 1873 single action design and gives it a dress-up worthy of the display case or the range. This .45 Colt six-shooter runs a 5.5" barrel and wears factory laser engraving across the barrel, cylinder, and alloy steel frame. The showpiece is the pair of Ultra Ivory grips, each carrying a laser-engraved Liberty Eagle that gives the gun its name and its personality. It's a looker, but it's a shooter too.
Like the rest of Pietta's Great Western II line, this one stays true to the original Colt pattern with a floating firing pin in the hammer rather than a modern transfer bar. That's the period-correct setup cowboy action folks tend to appreciate. The exposed hammer and single action mechanism mean you cock it for every shot, just like the old timers did. Topping it off is a traditional blade front sight paired with the classic groove down the top strap for a rear notch.
The .45 Colt cartridge has been a Western favorite since the 1870s, and it still delivers that satisfying thump at the target. The 5.5" barrel splits the difference nicely, giving you a bit more sight radius and velocity than the shorter 4.75" guns while staying handy enough to balance well in the hand. Six rounds in the cylinder keeps it classic.
Manufactured by F.LLI Pietta in Italy, the Great Western II line has earned a reputation for solid fit and consistent triggers at a price that doesn't climb into custom Colt territory. The engraving and ivory-look grips make this Liberty model stand out whether it's riding in a holster at a cowboy action match or sitting pretty in a collection. It's one of those guns that's just as happy being shot as it is being shown off.
This revolver follows the period-correct Colt pattern with a floating firing pin in the hammer, not a modern transfer bar. That's the traditional setup many cowboy action shooters prefer. Because of this design, follow standard single action loading practice to keep things running the way they should.
This particular model is chambered in .45 Long Colt with a 5.5" barrel. The Liberty line is also offered in a shorter 4.75" barrel and in .357 Magnum, so if the 5.5" .45 Colt is what you're after, this is the one. It holds six rounds in the cylinder.
Yes. The barrel, cylinder, and frame all carry factory laser engraving, and the Ultra Ivory grips feature a laser-engraved Liberty Eagle. It all comes straight from Pietta, so there's no aftermarket work needed to get the look.
The Great Western II line is manufactured by F.LLI Pietta in Italy, a maker well known for quality single action reproductions. The series has a good reputation for consistent triggers and solid fit and finish. It's a popular pick for both collectors and folks who shoot cowboy action.
