There is a reason the Smoke Wagon Deluxe keeps showing up in holsters at cowboy action matches across the country. Taylor's & Company started with the classic 1873 single action pattern, built by Uberti on a forged, color case hardened steel frame with a blued barrel and cylinder, then went through the internals the way a good gunsmith would. The Deluxe treatment means custom hammer and base pin springs, a trigger spring set around 3 pounds, jig cut positive angles on the trigger and sear, a coil-loaded hand, and a wire bolt. The result is an action that feels broken in from the first cock of the hammer, with a trigger break that owners routinely compare to expensive custom work.
The practical touches matter just as much as the tuning. The hammer sits lower than a standard Cattleman profile, so it is quicker to reach and easier to run under time pressure. The rear sight channel and front blade are both widened, which speeds up sight acquisition compared to the narrow notch on most traditional single actions. Thin, checkered walnut Navy-style grips give smaller and medium hands a secure, comfortable hold without the bulk of oversized stocks.
Chambered in .357 Magnum with a six round cylinder, this one also happily digests .38 Special, which keeps range days affordable and recoil mild for high volume practice or competition. The 5.5 inch barrel strikes a nice balance, long enough for a clean sight radius and good velocity, short enough to clear leather quickly. At roughly 2.3 pounds empty and about 11 inches overall, it carries and points like the originals did.
The color case hardened frame shows off real character against the deep blue of the barrel and cylinder, and the fit and finish on these Uberti-built guns draws consistent praise. Whether you are chasing match times, plinking steel on the weekend, or just want a proper single action that runs as good as it looks, the Smoke Wagon Deluxe delivers on both counts.
Yes. Like any revolver chambered in .357 Magnum, it will safely fire .38 Special as well. That is a big part of why this chambering is so popular with cowboy action folks, since .38 Special is cheap, soft shooting, and easy to find. Just give the chambers a good cleaning after a heavy .38 session so magnum cases seat properly.
The Deluxe gets Taylor's custom tune from the factory. That includes custom hammer and base pin springs, a 3 pound trigger spring, jig cut positive angles on the trigger and sear, a coil-loaded hand, and a wire bolt. In plain terms, the action is noticeably smoother and the trigger is lighter and crisper than the standard model right out of the box.
It is one of the most popular choices in the sport. The low profile hammer is faster to thumb back on the clock, the widened rear notch and front blade speed up sight acquisition, and the tuned action keeps everything running smooth through a full match. The thin checkered walnut grips also suit a wide range of hand sizes.
The revolver is manufactured by Uberti in Italy on a forged steel frame, then imported and tuned to Taylor's & Company specs. Uberti has a long track record of building high quality 1873 pattern single actions, and the fit and finish on these guns gets consistent praise from owners.
