Plenty of companies make a Single Action Army clone. What sets the Cattleman Gunfighter apart is the grip. Taylor's took the beloved 1860 Army grip frame, the longer one Colt put on its cap and ball revolvers, and married it to a forged steel New Model frame. If standard SAA grips leave your pinky hanging off the bottom or the plow handle rolling too much in your palm, this setup solves it. The Army grip runs longer and slightly wider than the Navy-size grip found on most 1873 clones, and the difference is obvious the second you wrap a full-size hand around that walnut.
The DE at the end of the model number is the part worth paying attention to. This one comes through Taylor's tuning process, which means hand-polished internals plus custom springs that lighten both the hammer draw and the trigger pull. Cocking the hammer feels smooth instead of gritty, and the trigger breaks clean without the heavy, creepy pull that budget SAA clones are known for. It is the kind of work folks usually send a new single action off to a gunsmith for, already handled before it hits your hands.
Built by Uberti for Taylor's & Company, this revolver wears the traditional dress: a 4.75 inch blued barrel, blued cylinder, and a color case hardened frame with that swirled bone-charcoal look no two guns share exactly. Sights are a fixed front blade and rear notch, just like the originals, and the forged frame gives you better grain structure and strength than cast alternatives.
Chambered in .45 Colt with six rounds on tap, this is the pairing the 1873 was born with. The 4.75 inch barrel length, often called the Gunfighter or Civilian length, balances quick out of leather and points naturally, which is why it stays a favorite for cowboy action matches, ranch carry, and lazy afternoons ringing steel. Between the bigger grip, the tuned action, and the classic finish work, this one earns its spot in the safe the first time you shoot it.
Taylor Tuned models get extra attention before they ship. The internals are hand polished and the factory springs are swapped for custom ones, which lightens both the hammer cocking effort and the trigger pull. The result is a smoother, cleaner action than a standard model straight from the box.
Most 1873 clones wear the smaller Navy-size grip. The Gunfighter uses the 1860 Army grip frame instead, which is longer and a bit wider. That extra real estate gives larger hands a full purchase and helps tame the grip roll you get with the shorter plow handle.
It is a strong pick for it. The forged steel frame holds up well to steady match use, the 4.75 inch barrel clears leather fast, and the tuned action means less trigger work needed to get it competition ready. The bigger Army grip also helps with consistent hand placement between stages.
Taylor's & Company imports this revolver from Uberti in Italy, one of the most respected names in reproduction firearms. Taylor's specs out the configuration and handles the tuning work, so you get Uberti build quality with the upgraded action and Army grip setup.
