The Cimarron US Artillery .45 Long Colt revolver brings authentic Old West history into your hands. Built on the Uberti USV platform with period-correct markings and construction, this 5.5" single-action is modeled after the shortened cavalry revolvers that saw service during the Spanish-American War—particularly the models carried by Roosevelt's Roughriders during their famous charge up San Juan Hill. Whether you're a serious cowboy action shooter, historical firearms collector, or someone drawn to America's frontier heritage, this revolver delivers genuine character and reliable performance in a compact, carry-friendly package.
The fixed-sight configuration keeps things simple and honest, just as the original artillery models were issued. The case-hardened Old Model frame displays authentic U.S. Artillery markings that speak to its historical inspiration, while the standard blue finish and single-piece walnut grip with RAC cartouche add to the gun's traditional appeal. At just over two pounds, it handles like a proper fighting revolver—balanced enough for extended shooting sessions yet nimble enough for quick work.
.45 Long Colt is a storied cartridge with modern ammunition readily available, making this revolver both historically faithful and practically shootable. The 5.5" barrel is the sweet spot for cavalry-pattern revolvers: short enough to clear leather quickly, long enough to deliver decent velocity and accuracy at typical handgun distances. This is a revolver built for those who appreciate the craftsmanship of the original designs and want something that shoots as good as it looks.
