Colt (LC) 6rd .45 Colt 12" 6-Round Walnut Stock Revolver

The Colt (LC) 6rd .45 Colt 12" 6-Round Walnut Stock Revolver represents a historically accurate reproduction of one of America's most iconic sidearms, manufactured by PIETTA under the EMF Company Inc. banner. This revolver is purpose-built for shooters who value authentic design paired with modern manufacturing standards—whether for historical reenactment, cowboy action shooting, sport competition, or collecting. The .45 Colt cartridge remains a proven manstopper with ballistic characteristics that law enforcement and military personnel respected for over a century, delivering substantial stopping power in a controllable platform.

Built with a 12-inch barrel, this revolver delivers superior sight radius and velocity compared to shorter variants, critical factors for precision shooting at distance. The walnut stock furniture provides both ergonomic grip geometry and authentic period aesthetics, while the single-action/double-action capability allows shooters to select their preferred firing method. At 3.3 pounds, the revolver maintains manageable recoil dynamics even with full-power .45 Colt loads, and the 6-round cylinder capacity balances practical ammunition availability with period-correct specifications. The overall length of 18.6 inches positions this as a rifle-class sidearm rather than a concealable handgun, emphasizing its role in open-carry or sporting applications.

Tactical shooters and competitive action pistol competitors benefit from this revolver's extended sight plane and target-grade ergonomics, while historical enthusiasts appreciate PIETTA's commitment to authentic reproduction standards. Cowboy action shooting competitors will find the .45 Colt chambering directly aligned with major sanctioning body requirements, and the 6-round capacity meets all major competition rules. This firearm integrates seamlessly into any .45 Colt ammunition ecosystem and requires standard revolver maintenance protocols—cleaning rod compatible with .45 caliber diameter, standard nipple tools, and conventional gun oils. Law enforcement historians and former military personnel often seek this configuration as a reference platform for understanding classic revolver ergonomics and ballistics before modern polymer designs became prevalent.
