Whether you're into Cowboy Action Shooting, historical reenactment, or simply appreciate quality replica firearms with genuine shooting credentials, this blue-finished beauty delivers authentic handling and authentic results downrange.
The 8-inch octagonal barrel gives you sight radius and velocity suitable for target work and hunting medium game, while the 2-piece walnut grips provide a period-correct feel that fits naturally in the hand.
