Traditions Frontier 1873 Large .357 Mag Revolver - Color Case Hardened Finish
Traditions
The Traditions Frontier 1873 Sheriff's .357 Mag revolver brings authentic Old West character to modern shooting. This large-frame single-action revolver chambers .357 Magnum, giving you the stopping power and velocity of a genuine magnum round in a classic 1873-style platform. With a 3.5-inch barrel, it's short enough for quick handling without sacrificing sight radius—an ideal balance for cowboy action shooting, historical reenactment, or anyone who appreciates the mechanical simplicity and satisfying trigger of a true single-action design.
Built with a color case hardened steel frame and blued barrel and cylinder, this revolver carries the visual appeal of period-correct firearms while meeting modern reliability standards. The walnut grip feels right in your hand and complements the classic finish. A six-round capacity gives you standard single-action firepower, and the transfer bar safety adds a layer of modern safety engineering without compromising the authentic look or operation.
Fixed blade sights keep things simple and robust—no glass to break, no batteries to fail. This is a straightforward, honest revolver that rewards deliberate shooting and proper technique. Whether you're building a Cowboy Action Shooting rig, collecting single-action revolvers, or just want a .357 Mag with undeniable character, the Traditions Frontier Sheriff delivers proven design in large-frame proportions.
