Taylors & Co The Gunfighter Smooth/Large Army Grip .45 LC Revolver
Taylors & Company
The Taylors & Co Gunfighter is a .357 Magnum revolver built for shooters who want a classic single-action with a modern, accessible grip frame. The smooth/large Army grip combines comfort with control for extended range sessions or field work, while the 5.5-inch barrel strikes a balance between handling and sight radius—ideal for target shooting, sport revolver competition, or backcountry carry. At 2.30 lbs, it's light enough to pack without fatigue yet solid enough to absorb recoil cleanly.
This is period-correct single-action styling that doesn't apologize for its heritage. The blue finish pairs with a case-hardened frame, giving it visual depth and authentic appeal. Walnut grips complement that traditional look while providing a warm, proven hold. The simple blade front sight keeps things straightforward—no frills, no learning curve, just point and shoot. The six-round cylinder feeds .357 Magnum ammunition, which means you can dial in loads ranging from mild target rounds to full-house hunting velocities depending on your mission.
Whether you're a revolver purist, a Cowboy Action competitor, or someone who simply prefers the reliability and charm of a well-made single-action, the Gunfighter delivers without asking you to compromise on quality or shootability. At 11 inches overall, it fits a wide range of holster choices and feels at home on the range, in the field, or in a collection that celebrates honest gunsmithing.
