Ep. 9 of Gun Table Talk. In today’s episode, I will be going over another iconic revolver of the 19th century the 1873 Cattlemen. This revolver is probably one of the most famous guns of the Wild West and Hollywood films. If you’ve ever watch old classic western films you’ve seen the 1873 Cattleman.
I will be going over both the Uberti and Pietta versions of this pistol. I will also be discussing a quick history of this revolver, and the reproductions themselves. Depending on which gun maker you buy this specific model pistol results may vary. This particular model of revolver comes in a variety of calibers, and it’s still a very popular handgun in today’s time.
This video will not be demonstrating the loading or firing sequence of this particular handgun that will be for range video sometime in the future. I do not consider myself a historian, so if there is some thing that I left out, got wrong, or possibly misguided please let me know in the comments down below. Make sure to share, subscribe, like, and comment to TheMusketMan98 channel. Stick around you might learn something.
Thank you so much for watching!👍🏻

There is a safety on the four click models. The very first click is a safety notch. It keeps the firing pin off the primer and it requires over one thousand pounds of force to break it.

I have had all kinds of guns bought and sold over the years and now I am down to three. My Ruger 357 SP 101, Ruger Wrangler 22 and my SAA Uber 1973 clone in 45LC, They are the last I would ever get rid of.

I have the Uberti nickel plated 7.5" Cattleman just like that one. I'd like to say it's the favorite of all my guns, but they're all my favorite.

I have a specific powder charge I like to use that’s more accurate, but It shoots lower. Thanks for watching

@@TheMusketMan98 right on. I never had an issue with accuracy adding more powder. I’m using between 35 and 40 grains of triple seven and it shoots point of aim for me.

"Cattleman" is Uberti's name for its line of "Colt clones", that is, reproductions of the Colt Single Action Army revolver. Colt never used that term. The factory designation was "Model P". The moniker "Peacemaker" was associated with the revolver but was not a Colt designation. With respect, you are giving bad advice about the way to carry these revolvers. The Pietta is a pretty faithful copy of the original Colt design that includes the so-called safety notch. Yes, that first position (or "click") positions the hammer so that the firing pin is not in contact with the primer of the cartridge but the sear (the top of the trigger) and the notch in the hammer are not terribly robust and may shear off if the hammer is struck. Uberti's "Cattleman 2" redesign with the retracting firing pin eliminates the first click as redundant. Of course, you have firsthand knowledge of how well that worked out. The best advice with these revolvers is to carry them with the hammer down on an empty chamber. Ruger has the best engineered system for a single action revolver that can be safely carried fully loaded.

I believe that Uberti is nickel, not stainless steel.

Pietta is built better,of course it depends on the model. 1873...go with pietta other than that, uberti seems to be ok but needs more fine tuning.

@linguisticman 4 ай бұрын

@chuggon7595 Pietta and Uberti are different manufacturers altogether. The companies that buy from them are Cimarron, Taylor's & Co, EMF, Stoeger, Traditions.
