Cimarron Firearms Model P .45 LC 4.75" Old Model Revolver

The Cimarron Firearms Model P .45 LC 4.75" Old Model revolver brings authentic 1873 single-action design to shooters and Old West enthusiasts who want the real deal. This isn't a casual nod to frontier tradition—it's a faithful reproduction built from an original 1873 Colt in Cimarron's collection, engineered with period-correct details and modern reliability improvements. If you're into Cowboy Action Shooting, historical reenactment, or just appreciate a legendary revolver that works as hard as it looks, the Model P in .45 Colt is a natural choice.

Cimarron upgraded the classic 1873 design with their Cowboy Comp action, which smooths out the quirks of 19th-century manufacturing without sacrificing authenticity. The Old Model frame features the traditional cylinder base pin screw location in the front of the frame—the pre-1896 configuration that purists expect. The 4.75-inch barrel strikes the balance between handling and velocity that made the Peacemaker iconic, and at 2.48 pounds it carries naturally without fatigue over a long day at the range or in the field.

Available finishes include Standard Blue, Charcoal Blue, or Original Finish, each with its own character. The one-piece walnut grip feels right in the hand and ages well with use. Whether you're a serious Cowboy Action competitor, a collector of working single-actions, or someone who believes a .45 Colt revolver deserves to look as good as it shoots, the Model P from Cimarron delivers the accuracy and reliability you need with the aesthetics you'll want to keep coming back to.
