The Schofield is a pretty revolver.

All I know is the Schofield done kill folk with less bullets in Rdr2.

The 7.5" Uberti SAA and Schofield are beautiful. I dragged my wife into the store yesterday just to look out them.

Thanks so much for the compare and contrast, very informative. One of the guns I handled in my firearms class was a Uberti 5.5 SAA. 3:10 to Yuma was great. My introduction to both guns was: I had a Colt SAA cap gun at 6 and at 10, I was watching Dead Man's Gun and the Schofield was the "cursed" gun that traveled around.

Excellent review and comparison thanks. Is the 4 3/4 inch SAA also known as the cattleman or is that a different gun altogether? Thanks again.

Got a Uberti 45LC IN AUCTION ,, Paid less than half price and almost came home with one in a 38 for a little less on price,,, nobody wanted to bid much on them... Very glad I got a great deal,,, what grain would you recommend to use in it in the 45LC? AND GREAT INFORMATION,,, I wasn’t sure if mine was considered the no3 2nd model but I think you summed it up

Should've had the Colt clones facing the other way to show the loading gate. Absolute classic revolvers. I own both of these. I also own an original Schofield No. 3 and Colt Army single action revolver. I shoot them very sparingly. If I own it ... It will be shot. Just like God intended. LOL! Great shooters when I feel like going classic at the range.

If you're wondering what happened to that 1866 rifle, after you returned it they sold it to Grabagun who then sold it to me. I immediately recognized it in your video from the nick on the receiver and the wood grain in the stock. And yes it was a turd, and I was pretty unhappy when I received it. Then when I shot it I had some more problems, so it went straight back to Taylors who replaced the rifle for me. Hopefully it was scrapped afterwards and didn't end up with a third unlucky owner. BTW this is not a criticism of Taylors, as they did me right in the end.

Do you have these in stock? Looking locally (Indianapolis area) for a 4.75" barrel Cimarron Model P in .357. Thanks!

Damn cool awesome quick and to the point vid by the way. No bullshit. Ya get right down to it.

Thanks for this information

It would be interesting to see the Military Issue holsters for these two guns.

I have an 1866 from Taylors which shoots great and looks flawless. The action is smooth as butter. I guess it was just bad luck you got that one. I have heard the same thing about Cimarron being better, but I have not encountered these problems. I have Schoefield's from both companies and they are both excellent. I have had pretty good luck from both companies with great firearms quality and no issues. Taylors actually packages their handgun's better and even includes a case in the box for their firearms. Great video, very informative!

The Schofield had the genius break down and ejection. Super fast reloads. But the s&w bullet only killed the model. Plus the Colt was just so pointy and shooty. The sleek ergos on the Colt more than made up for it's slower reload times. It damn near aimed itself. I like em both truth be told. Who and when were the first side pop out cylinder revolvers made???

Love these units!

What you reviewers forget the Schofield was issued by Wells Fargo to their agents in a 5" barrel. The .45 Colt's copper casing has a rim is too small for the ejector to grap. This also why Winchester never could make a rifle/carbine in .45 Colt. The rim was too small & would be tour up & jam the long arm.

Can you tell me what the lettering on the pistol grips stand for? One side says 1877 but I can’t make out the letters on both sides..

the patent was on a through bore cylinder, Colt had no through bored cylinder guns and could not make any until the patent ran out.

Go buy a Brownell base pin puller tool for your SAA 1873 or your 1875 Outlaw. The 1875 Outlaw is the toughest and you have less problems.

After learning about Wesson refusing to chamber to accommodate.45lc, only making the schofield patented changes because he was forced to and then refusing to use the changes after the the army stopped buying the model 3, even refusing to use the improvements after Schofield’s patent expired, choosing instead to redesign his own method (which still required 2 hand operation) I can only come to the conclusion that Wesson was an extremely stubborn and spiteful man. The kind of guy who always has to be correct, and if you disagree then you’re beneath him. He really only had himself to blame for the lack of the model 3’s military success.

hi, are these co2 ?.

310 to yumah.... great movie... now I want to watch it

8:09 When????? 🤪 8:36 8:49 😁 18:10 That's not right. The Uberti Revolver Model 1875 Top Break comes in .38 Spl, .44-40, and .45 colt

Smith & Wesson made a run of the Schofield in 2000 year there was only 2500 made and they were made in the 45 schofield caliber

all of these are carry 5 with the hammer down on an empty chamber

How many bullets do you loose as you ride along with your revolver open and out of battery? a colt is never out of battery.

or real fire arms?

Looks like it would be real difficult to fan a Schofield

Mostly regurgitated internet storys. The deal when comparing the two is to compare within the era. That is black power era. The cartridges of the era are not what they are today. They were soft copper cases, internally primed, very small folded rim cartridges. This was the reason the SAA was favored over the Smith. After firing the filtly sooty black power Schofield cartridge, the sticky residue acted like glue dependent on humidity and round count. As little as two cylinders fired the Smith upon ejection, would have the star ejector slip over the cartridge rims on some or all cartridges rendering the gun close to impossible to reload without disassembly. Not good in a combat environment. This was not a possibility with the slower to unload colt.

I don't think Uberti ever supplied anything to the army and wasn't even around in the 1800s.

That commercial was funny asf

There is no such thing as a .45 Long Colt cartridge. It is simply the .45 Colt.

CALVARY is the hilltop on which our Lord was crucified. CAVALRY are horse-mounted troops. Good explanatory video.

It's been my experience that Cimarron is no better than any other importer. I actually bought one Cimarron that was a mess, it showed up with a 45LC cylinder and a .357 barrel. After several months getting nowhere with them I threatened legal action and they sent me a new cylinder and hand that I had to fit myself. Cimarron spends a lot on glitzy advertising and makes a lot of unfounded claims of superiority.

listening to all the "19"s is painful.

Schofield is like a Lamborghini or other sport car. Streamlined. SAA:s are bulky in height. And, by the way, all modern revolvers are bulky in height. So I wish the modern revolvers were as streamlined as Schofield. The only thing I would change on Schofield is more modern look of the trigger guard and trigger. So a combination of Schofield grip, frame and barrel design and tirgger guard and trigger design of modern revolvers would create the magic.

The real reason for the army dropping the Schofield, is that the horse soldier did not like it, because of the method of unloading and loading, which you say is better than the Colt SAA; on paper, you are correct; but, for real life, you are wrong. The horse soldier wanted to be able to extract and load, one cartridge at a time; for example, the horse soldier might fire one, two, or three cartridges, then an interruption would allow time to top off the gun, extracting, and replacing only those empty cases, not open the gun, and loose all the cartridges to the ground.

Not 1973

Collecting is "big commercialism and capitalism"?

I gave up after about the 100th reference to 1900s. It really compromises credibility.
