Some revolvers just feel right in the hand, and the Cimarron Frontier Pre-War is one of them. This is a faithful recreation of the single action army as it was built between 1896 and 1940, which is why Cimarron calls it the Pre-War model. The big visual and mechanical difference from the earliest pattern is the spring-loaded cross-pin latch that holds the cylinder base pin, a small detail that period collectors notice right away. Cimarron based the gun on an original from their own collection, so the proportions, heft, and balance are true to the real thing rather than a loose interpretation.
The frame wears traditional color case hardening with those swirling blues and straw tones, set against a high polish blued 5.5 inch barrel and cylinder. A one-piece walnut grip rounds out the look, and the all steel construction gives it that solid, planted feel a genuine sixgun should have. Cock the hammer slowly and you get the four distinct clicks these guns are famous for. The action comes tuned from the factory, and owners consistently mention tight cylinder lockup, clean timing, and a crisp trigger with very little creep.
Chambered in .45 Colt with a six-round cylinder, the Frontier Pre-War is right at home in cowboy action shooting, where the 5.5 inch barrel splits the difference between the quick-handling 4.75 inch guns and the longer cavalry models. Fixed sights keep the sight picture simple and snag free, just like the originals. It's equally happy burning through a box of cowboy loads on a lazy Saturday or riding in a leather rig for a day of trail carry.
Cimarron has built its reputation on getting the historical details right, and this one delivers the authentic look, feel, and operation of a first generation single action without the collector-grade price of an original Colt. If you've been wanting a proper peacemaker-style revolver to shoot rather than stare at, this is a smart place to land.
It refers to the single action army pattern produced from 1896 to 1940, before World War II halted production. The key difference from the earlier Old Model is the spring-loaded cross-pin latch that secures the cylinder base pin, replacing the screw-in retainer used on the black powder era frames. It makes cylinder removal quicker and matches the guns most people picture when they think of a classic peacemaker.
Yes, it's one of the more popular choices in the sport. The factory tuned action, tight lockup, and clean trigger give it a real head start out of the box, and the 5.5 inch barrel is a well-liked middle ground for balance and speed on the clock. Being an all steel gun in .45 Colt, it handles cowboy loads comfortably all day.
Like the originals it replicates, this is a traditional single action design without a modern transfer bar safety. The time-tested practice is to load one, skip a chamber, load four more, then lower the hammer on the empty chamber. That's how these guns were carried for over a century and it's still the right way to run one.
Cimarron Firearms, based in Fredericksburg, Texas, has these built in Italy to their specifications and inspects them before they head out the door. Cimarron is known for insisting on historically correct dimensions and finishes, and this model was patterned after an original revolver in their own collection. The result is a high polish, all steel gun with period-correct details throughout.
