The Pietta 1873 GW2 Posse .357 Magnum revolver brings classic single-action design to a practical, modern-day caliber. Built on the proven platform of the 1873 pattern, this 3.5-inch barrel model splits the difference between a full-size wheel gun and something you can actually carry without feeling like a time traveler. Six-round capacity in .357 Magnum means you're getting genuine stopping power without sacrificing the traditional looks and straightforward mechanics that make single-action revolvers so reliable and fun to shoot.

The GW2 Posse is a working revolver for working people—cowboy action shooters, hunters comfortable with revolver ballistics, and folks who appreciate the mechanical honesty of a single-action. The casehardened and blued finish gives it that authentic period appearance, while the smooth walnut grip provides a comfortable, classic hold. There's no plastic, no rails, no unnecessary modern gadgetry; just steel, wood, and the satisfaction of a crisp trigger pull.

At 3.5 inches, this barrel length is genuinely versatile. It's short enough to carry without printing like a paperback novel, but long enough to give .357 Magnum rounds the velocity they need to perform. Whether you're loading it for cowboy action competition, trail carry while hunting, or just want a defensive revolver with some history to it, the Pietta 1873 GW2 Posse delivers the goods without compromise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the Pietta 1873 GW2 Posse suitable for cowboy action shooting?

Yes. The single-action 1873 platform is a standard choice for cowboy action competitors, and the GW2 Posse's specifications align well with that use case. You'll want to check your specific match rules regarding barrel length and caliber, but the gun itself is purpose-built for that discipline.

Can I carry the 3.5-inch barrel version in a standard holster?

A 3.5-inch single-action revolver will fit many standard gun belts and holster styles, but holster availability is broader for 4.75-inch or 5.5-inch barrels. Before purchasing a holster, verify the specifications match a 3.5-inch single-action revolver to ensure proper fit and retention.

What ammunition can I shoot in the .357 Magnum Pietta?

The revolver is chambered in .357 Magnum, which also safely fires .38 Special ammunition (a shorter cartridge). Always follow the manufacturer's loading recommendations and consult the owner's manual for safe operating procedures and ammunition guidance.
