The Cimarron Firearms 1858 New Model Army .45 LC 8" Nickel Revolver is a faithful reproduction of the legendary cap-and-ball sixgun that defined the Old West—and a natural choice for cowboy action shooters, historical reenactors, and anyone who appreciates a revolver built on proven mechanics. Cimarron's rendition captures the original's balance and handling while chambering .45 Colt ammunition for modern versatility. With an 8-inch barrel, fixed sights, and a full steel frame wrapped in walnut grips, this nickel-finished revolver delivers both authentic aesthetics and practical shootability in a package that weighs a manageable 44 ounces.

The nickel finish strikes a classic look that stands apart from blued steel, offering visual appeal alongside corrosion resistance. The 1858 New Model Army platform has earned its reputation over generations—it's intuitive to operate, reliable under field conditions, and equally at home in a Cowboy Action Shooting match, on the trail, or in a collection. The six-round cylinder and fixed-sight configuration keep you true to the revolver's heritage while the .45 LC cartridge delivers plenty of stopping power if this gun ever becomes more than a range toy or show piece.

Cimarron Firearms Co. builds these revolvers for shooters and collectors who refuse to compromise on authenticity or quality. Whether you're chasing down CAS competition, maintaining a historical firearm interest, or simply drawn to the mechanical elegance of a steel-frame sixgun, the 1858 New Model Army invites you to experience why this design has endured for over 160 years.
