The Taylor’s & Company Gambler in .45 Colt (MPN 555130) is a single-action revolver built with a shorter, rounded grip profile favored by riverboat gamblers and lawmen who valued a fast, concealable draw over a full-length Cattleman frame. Taylor’s & Company finishes the 5.5-inch barrel and cylinder in blued steel and fits a walnut grip along with fixed blade-front and notched-rear sights. The 6-round cylinder chambers the classic .45 Colt cartridge. Among Old West reproductions in the revolvers category, the Gambler favors shooters who want a period-correct concealed-carry single action in the classic .45 Colt chambering.
