The Cimarron Firearms Couberti 1873 in .45 LC is a modern take on the classic single-action revolver that built the American West. This 18.5" Texas Brush Popper combines the proven mechanics of the 1873 platform with a barrel length designed for practical shooting in real-world hunting and sport scenarios. Cimarron builds these revolvers with genuine attention to historical accuracy and functional reliability, making them equally at home on the range, in the field, or in a working shooter's collection.
The .45 LC is a capable cartridge with a deep legacy in American firearms history. Its moderate velocity and substantial bullet weight make it useful for hunting medium game and small game at reasonable distances, and it's remained popular among Cowboy Action shooters and single-action enthusiasts for over a century. The 18.5" barrel strikes a balance between sight radius and practical handling—longer than a standard 5.5" Peacemaker, but not so long that it becomes unwieldy in brush or timber.
Cimarron has earned respect among serious single-action shooters for attention to detail and quality control. Their revolvers are built on modern machinery but maintain the aesthetic and feel of period firearms. Whether you're interested in Cowboy Action competition, historical collecting, or exploring the capabilities of a genuine .45 LC revolver, this Couberti model offers the versatility and shootability that makes the 1873 design enduring.

The 18.5" barrel gives you a longer sight radius and different handling characteristics than the classic 5.5" or 7.5" versions. This length is sometimes called a "Texas Brush Popper" configuration and appeals to shooters who want improved sighting capability or who use single-actions for field purposes where that extra sight distance helps.
The .45 LC is historically proven for hunting and sport shooting. Barrel length, shot placement, and the load you choose all factor into effectiveness. The 18.5" length gives you good velocity development for the cartridge.
Cimarron single-actions are popular in Cowboy Action competitions. Check your local match rules for barrel length, sight, and configuration requirements—some categories have specific restrictions on modifications or barrel length.
