There is a reason the 1873 pattern never went out of style, and this Taylors & Company 1873 SA is a solid way to own a piece of that legacy without hunting the collector market. Built in Italy by Pietta for Taylors, it stays faithful to the original design with a steel frame, a side loading gate, and an ejector rod tucked under the barrel right where it belongs. The all blued finish gives it that clean, working gun look, and the two-piece checkered black grips fill the hand with the familiar Navy-size plow handle shape that rolls naturally under recoil.
The 4.75 inch barrel is the classic gunfighter length, quick out of a holster and easy to balance, and it pairs perfectly with the .45 Colt cartridge the original was built around. Sights are period correct too, with a fixed front blade and a V notch cut into the frame. At 2.45 pounds with a 10.35 inch overall length, it has enough heft to soak up the push of .45 Colt loads while still carrying comfortably on a belt all day.
This is a true single action, so every shot starts with thumbing back that big exposed hammer, and that deliberate rhythm is half the fun. It makes a natural fit for cowboy action matches, casual range days, or introducing someone new to revolvers, since the manual of arms is simple and the .45 Colt is a soft pushing, big bore round that is pleasant to shoot with standard loads.
Taylors has built its reputation on quality reproductions, and this one keeps the details right where they count. Whether you want a match gun, a trail companion, or just a proper six shooter to enjoy on weekends, the 1873 SA covers all three without fuss.
This particular model, part number 200103, is manufactured in Italy by Pietta and imported by Taylors & Company. Pietta has decades of experience building traditional single action revolvers, and Taylors inspects and stands behind the guns they bring in. It is a faithful working reproduction of the classic 1873 pattern.
Yes, this style of revolver is a staple on the cowboy action circuit. The 4.75 inch barrel clears leather quickly, the .45 Colt chambering is period correct, and the steel frame holds up to regular match use. Many folks run a pair of these for competition.
Like the original design, it loads one round at a time through a side loading gate on the right of the frame. To unload, you open the gate and use the spring loaded ejector rod under the barrel to push each empty case out as you rotate the cylinder. It is a slower process than a swing-out cylinder, but it is part of the traditional experience.
It uses fixed sights in the traditional style, with a blade up front and a V notch groove machined into the top of the frame. There is nothing to adjust or knock out of alignment, which keeps things simple and rugged. With a little practice finding your load's point of impact, these sights are plenty accurate for targets and matches.
