The Taylors & Company 556104 1873 Cattleman Drifter 357 Mag Caliber revolver represents a modern production interpretation of the iconic single-action revolver that defined American frontier and law enforcement history. This 6-round, fixed-sight revolver is purpose-built for competitive shooting sports, cowboy action shooting (CAS), and recreational use by shooters who demand authentic 1873 ergonomics paired with consistent manufacturing quality. The 4.75-inch blued finish barrel provides the classic sight radius and balance point that made the original 1873 design endure for over 150 years in the hands of lawmen and civilians alike.
The Drifter model features a forged steel frame with color case hardened finish—a construction method that yields superior grain structure and material density compared to cast alternatives, directly translating to improved strength and longevity under repeated firing. The blued finish cylinder offers corrosion resistance while maintaining period-correct aesthetics, and the walnut grip provides authentic feel and natural point-of-aim geometry. At 3.34 pounds, the revolver maintains manageable recoil management in 357 Magnum while delivering the speed and reliability that competitive shooters demand across multiple stages and stages of competition.
Competitive shooters, historical reenactors, and single-action enthusiasts will find the Drifter well-suited to both 357 Magnum and 38 Special ammunition, allowing shooters to optimize load choice for accuracy and recoil management within match rules. The fixed sight configuration demands shooter skill and sight picture discipline—qualities valued across competitive disciplines. Law enforcement historians and firearms collectors appreciate the authentic build quality and period-correct design without the premium pricing of antique originals, making this an accessible platform for serious single-action sport shooting.
