There is just something about a single action revolver. The four clicks of the hammer, the slow roll of the cylinder as you load through the gate, the way the grip rocks back in your hand under recoil. The Taurus Deputy captures all of that classic Single Action Army feel, then quietly fixes the old design's biggest drawback. A transfer bar safety means you can load all six chambers and carry with a round under the hammer, something you were never supposed to do with the originals or most clones.
This configuration wears a 5.5-inch barrel and runs .357 Magnum, which means it also feeds .38 Special for cheap, soft-shooting range days. The all-steel construction gives it real heft, and that weight works in your favor when you step up to full-power magnum loads. Recoil rolls through the traditional plow-handle grip instead of snapping at your wrist, and the hammer lands right under your thumb for the next shot. Up top you get a half-moon front blade and a fixed rear notch cut into the top strap, just like the old-timers carried. The deep black finish and polymer grips with the Taurus bullhead logo round out the look.
The Deputy's dimensions stay true enough to the original SAA pattern that most holsters and aftermarket grips made for that platform will fit, so building out a rig for cowboy action matches or trail carry is easy. It has earned a reputation for solid fit and finish and good accuracy, with the 1:16.5 twist barrel printing tight groups at typical revolver distances.
Cowboy action competitors, western enthusiasts, backpackers who want a stout trail gun, and anyone who has always wanted a proper single action without a premium price tag will feel right at home here. It is one of the most affordable ways to get a genuine SAA-style .357 into your safe, and it is a whole lot of fun every time it comes out.
Yes. Like any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, the Deputy will safely fire .38 Special from the same cylinder. That gives you a lighter-recoiling, budget-friendly option for practice and plinking, then you can load full-power magnums for the trail or serious work.
It is. Unlike original Single Action Army revolvers and most clones, which should only be carried with five rounds and the hammer resting on an empty chamber, the Deputy uses a transfer bar safety. The gun can only fire when the trigger is fully pulled, so a loaded chamber under the hammer is not a problem.
For the most part, yes. The Deputy follows the classic Colt SAA pattern closely enough that most holsters and grip panels made for that platform will fit. That makes it easy to put together a cowboy rig or swap in wood grips if the factory polymer set is not your style.
Correct, it is single action only, which means you cock the hammer manually before each shot and the trigger only releases the hammer. Loading and unloading is done one round at a time through the loading gate with the hammer at half cock. It is the traditional Old West manual of arms, and part of the charm of shooting a gun like this.
